Types have no overlap, but i have defined the type so that it does in fact have overlap
This is the error that i am getting
`This comparison appears to be unintentional because the types '"KVA"' and '"XYZ"' have no overlap.ts(2367)``
Why is this not working 🙂 ?

TESTTYPE will always be "KVA" based on that condition so you could also just:
