Repro

1. Enable the rule (seedocs)

2. Either

   • Create a js file where numbers or strings are added

   exportconstf=(a,b)=>a+b;

   • Create a ts file, where arguments of type any are added

   exportconstf=(a:any,b:any)=>a+b;

3. Observe the following error in each case:

   Operands of '+' operation must either be both strings or both numbers.eslint(@typescript-eslint/restrict-plus-operands)

.eslintrc.js

{"rules": {"@typescript-eslint/restrict-plus-operands":"error"  }}

Expected Result

The current result is fine, however too much strictness out of which you cannot opt out may get the rule challenging to use in existing codebases. I just tried enabling it in a monorepo with mixed js and ts code and got hundreds of errors. I understand the value behind this, just find it impossible to start using the rule to catch real issues (variable of known typenumber being added to a variable of known typestring). Errors in js files are especially unfortunate.

Would it be possible to optionally allowany in the rule?

"@typescript-eslint/restrict-plus-operands":  ["error", { allowAny: true }]

or even

"@typescript-eslint/restrict-plus-operands":  ["error", { skipJs: true }]"@typescript-eslint/restrict-plus-operands":  ["error", { allowAny: true, skipJs: true }]

Or should js files just be always skipped?
