I have this simple project in vscode with Vue Language Features (Volar) enabled and TypeScript and JavaScript Language Features disabled (takeover mode).

.
├── a.ts
├── b.ts
└── tsconfig.json

Both a.ts and b.ts have a simple const a = import.meta line of code.

My tsconfig.json

{
  "files": ["a.ts"],
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "CommonJS"
  }
}

My question is...

Why am I getting a The 'import.meta' meta-property is only allowed when the '--module' option is 'es2020', 'es2022', 'esnext', 'system', 'node16', or 'nodenext'. error in both files? Why is b.ts not excluded?

If I disable Volar and re-enable vscode built-in TypeScript and JavaScript Language Features I only get the error in a.ts file, just as I'd expect.

I understand that this setup does not really makes sense on a typescript project with no .vue files. But the thing is that I am running into this behaviour within a nuxt project where all IDE setup recommendations point to the use of Volar Takeover Mode.

From vue docs:

"Volar provides a feature called "Takeover Mode" to improve performance. In takeover mode, Volar provides support for both Vue and TS files using a single TS language service instance."

Any help or clarification will be very helpful!

Thanks in advanced!
