Is it safe to cast T & Any to T?

[Joffrey]

You shouldn't need to, it's already of type T

[Chris Fillmore]

I’m getting an error I don’t quite understand (“DataState” is my own wrapper class)

[Chris Fillmore]

Kotlin 1.6.20 (edited to say .20)

[Joffrey]

This is not the same as casting T & Any to T, what's the variance of DataState?

[Chris Fillmore]

Ah! I had out T

[Chris Fillmore]

Dropping the projection fixes it
