Calling overloaded method on union type

[cojj90]

TypeScript Version: 3.6.0-dev.20190608

Search Terms: method overloading on union type

Code
please refer to the playground link below

Expected behavior:
Should be able to call eat method since it matches one of the signature.
On playground link, line 27 should not be marked as error.

Funny thing is, removing line 2 (the un-matching function signature) makes tsc happy.
I've added line 32 to show typescript is happy as long as union type is not used

Actual behavior:
TSC marks it as error (Cannot invoke an expression whose type lacks a call signature.)

Duplicate that is tracked here: #7294. Unions of call signatures currently do not work for generic signatures.
