The documentation states that bounds is an option common to all cartesian axes. At the same time the documentation lists linear as one of the cartesian axes.
Despite this the file types/index.esm.d.ts doesn't list bounds as a field of LinearScaleOptions. It only lists it as a field of TimeScaleOptions. Attempting to set the field bounds when defining a linear scale when using TypeScript leads to a compilation error.
Perhaps this field should be defined on the type CartesianScaleOptions?
