I can fix it by renaming the parameter to `b` or something else, but it seems like this requires an unnecessary amount of knowledge about the generated code. Would it be possible to remap parameters that conflict with imports somehow?\n\n(By the way, this doesn't show up on the playground, because it seems like that has a 5.4 target, which uses `\u003c\u003c`, etc)\n\n\n\n\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/jkr","@type":"Person","name":"jkr"},"datePublished":"2025-02-02T15:31:25.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":5},"url":"https://github.com/1615/TypeScriptToLua/issues/1615"}
