No typescript warning when awaiting non Promise function

Question

Consider function below, it doesn't return promise, yet typescript doesn't warn about unnecessary use of await here. Is there a way to enforce this?

Awaiting a non-promise does have an effect, check out [my old question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55262996/does-awaiting-a-non-promise-have-any-detectable-effect). — ttulka, Dec 21 '19 at 12:08

This is by design, so don’t expect Typescript to be raising the error you’re looking for any time soon.
