Importing json on "module": "NodeNext" with assert { type: 'json' }

[Urigo]

I want to import json file and use NodeNext module configurations:

For Node users using my lib I need to add assert { type: 'json' }
But when I use "module": "NodeNext", an import like that:

import isracardCardsTransactionsList from '../schemas/isracardCardsTransactionsList.json' assert { type: 'json' };

I get an error: error TS2836: Import assertions are not allowed on statements that transpile to commonjs 'require' calls.

When I go back to "module": "ESNext" it works.

What do you think would be the right configurations?

P.S. this is the repo: https://github.com/Urigo/israeli-bank-scrapers-modern-schemas

Afraid I don't know, that feature shipped after I left the TypeScript team and I don't know the rules around it off the top of my head - I would have assumed that nodenext would allow it (assuming a modern target also)
