I believe that `strictFunctionTypes` only applies to callbacks. TypeScript is okay with the following code even with that option turned on:

  class Animal {}
  class Cat extends Animal { meow() {} }
  class Dog extends Animal { woof() {} }

  function foo(animals: Animal[]) {
    animals.push(new Dog)
  }

  const cats: Cat[] = [new Cat];

  foo(cats);
