P2 Redundant flag — already covered by strict: true

useUnknownInCatchVariables has been included as part of the TypeScript strict mode since TypeScript 4.4. Because line 8 already has "strict": true, this flag is already implicitly active.

All other explicit options in this file (exactOptionalPropertyTypes, noUncheckedIndexedAccess, noUnusedLocals, noUnusedParameters, noFallthroughCasesInSwitch, noImplicitOverride, noImplicitReturns) are not covered by strict: true and therefore warrant explicit listing. This one is the exception.

Adding it explicitly is harmless and won't change behaviour, but it is inconsistent with the pattern of the file and could mislead future maintainers into thinking it isn't already covered by strict.
