See discussion in jsx-eslint/eslint-plugin-react#2882
There are only two cases in this project that we honour parserOptions.ecmaVersion, and both are in scope-manager:
typescript-eslint/packages/scope-manager/src/ScopeManager.ts
Lines 78 to 84 in 498f397
These usages were brought across when I forked eslint-scope.
However in the context of TS scope analysis - the ecmaVersion makes zero sense.
TS will never treat your code as if it's ES5 or lower - it is always (syntactically and semantically) "ESNext".
Whilst other parts of the ecosystem respects them - and they should continue to - our parser and scope analyser should (like TS itself) always treat code as if it is ESNext in terms of language features.
