Type of `delegate(Element, string, EventType, Handler)` doesn't seem to work

See original GitHub issue

These work in TypeScript:

delegate(".base", ".clickable", "click", handler);
delegate(select.all(".base"), ".clickable", "click", handler);
This doesn't

But the Single base element specified overload doesn’t:

delegate(select(".base"), ".clickable", "click", handler);

      TS2345: Argument of type 'HTMLElement | null' is not assignable to parameter of type 'string | ArrayLike<Element>'.
  Type 'null' is not assignable to type 'string | ArrayLike<Element>'.

I think… that’s because select returns HTMLElement | null I’ll try again with select()!
