Repro Code

ESLint Config

module.exports={"rules":{"@typescript-eslint/prefer-nullish-coalescing":["warn",{"ignoreConditionalTests":true}]}}

tsconfig

{"compilerOptions": {"strictNullChecks":true  }}

Expected Result

I expect thatif (f(a || b)) {} should report, sincea || b is being used as a function argument, not the test of anif statement.

Actual Result

it doesn't report
