💻 Code

tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "NodeNext",
    "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
    "allowImportingTsExtensions": true
  }
}

package.json:

{
  "type": "module",
  "imports": {
    "#*": "./src/*"
  }
}

src/lib/add.ts (not really important, the content of the file, path is more important):

export const add = (a: number, b: number): number => {
  return a   b
}

src/index.ts:

import { add } from "#lib/add.js" // WRONG AUTO IMPORT, using .js, instead of .ts
console.log(add(2, 3))

🙁 Actual behavior

Auto import with #lib/add.js"

🙂 Expected behavior

Auto import with #lib/add.ts" because I'm using the "allowImportingTsExtensions": true config option.

This is all the more relevant since the newly added CLI Flag --experimental-strip-types in Node.js, because it enforces imports to use the .ts extension.
