Rename Symbol F2 with "pure keyof" is not possible - but it is possible if "wrapped as calculated property"

[qwertysk]

I think this could be related to typescript-language-server, even I reported it also here microsoft/TypeScript#56052

🕗 Version & Regression Information

• This is the behavior in every version I tried

💻 Code

////////////////////////// CASE 1 - keyof to computed property /////////////////////////

declare const Att_1: "Att 1"

interface Case_1 {
  [Att_1]: string
}

declare const fnc_1: <K extends keyof Case_1>(p: K) => void

fnc_1("Att 1")
//     ^_ Rename Symbol F2 => SUCCESS



////////////////////////// CASE 2 - pure keyof //////////////////////////

interface Case_2 {
  "Att 2": string // here is the difference, pls compare to Case_1
}

declare const fnc_2: <K extends keyof Case_2>(p: K) => void

fnc_2("Att 2")
//     ^_ Rename Symbol F2 => FAIL

🙁 Actual behavior

It is wrong because Att 2 in interface Case_2 is not renamed

🙂 Expected behavior

I expect Att 2 in interface Case_2 to be successfully renamed to Attribute 2

Additional information about the issue

Even it is not "a bug but the feature", is there best practice - if reliable renaming is really frequent and important in my project ?

PLS HELP ME ❤️❤️❤️ ... because manually create tons of constants for all project interfaces and all attributes - this is not maintanable way - any other ideas/patterns please ?

I think an issue in Typescript is enough since the logic for renaming is all there.
