the "true" branch narrows to types which have an optional or required property n, and the "false" branch narrows to types which have an optional or missing property n.
As a typescript beginner this is very confusing to me. Which branch is executed if the type has an optional property n? The text seems to suggest that both branches are executed which can't be the case.
I'm guessing that for optional properties the in operator returns false if the property value is undefined and true otherwise?
The

operator documentation says the following:As a typescript beginner this is very confusing to me. Which branch is executed if the type has an optional property
