• I have tried restarting my IDE and the issue persists.
• I have updated to the latest version of the packages.
• I have read the FAQ and my problem is not listed.

Repro

{
  "rules": {
    "@typescript-eslint/non-nullable-type-assertion-style": ["error"]
  }
}

const x = [] as const;

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "inlineSourceMap": false,
        "moduleResolution": "node",
        "noUncheckedIndexedAccess": true,
        "strict": true,
        "target": "es2020"
    },
    "include": ["src/**/*.ts"]
}

Expected Result

<anything> as const declarations shouldn't trigger a "don't do a type cast where ! is sufficient" warning since as const doesn't remove any nullability, just makes everything deep-readonly.

Actual Result

The rule thinks as const is a typecast removing null from a type:

Use a ! assertion to more succintly remove null and undefined from the type @typescript-eslint/non-nullable-type-assertion-style
