Search Terms: import export conflict priority

Code

/// foo.ts
export interface Foo { a: number; }

/// test.ts
import { Foo } from './foo'
export interface Foo { b: number; }
let foo: Foo = { a: 2 }

Expected behavior: Declaration conflict on test.ts (imported Foo vs exported Foo).

Actual behavior: No error. Instead, (see last line) Foo refers to the imported Foo, and the exported Foo becomes unaccessible. Is this expected?

If export interface is changed to export class, then a declaration conflict appears.
If export is removed in initial case, a declaration conflict also appears.

Playground Link: I don't know how to reproduce this with one file.

Related Issues: I searched issues, stackoverflow and docs (declaration merging, imports and exports, namespaces) but couldn't find any references to this behaviour.
