Order of type guards in &&-statement changes inferred type

[hhaentze]

TypeScript Version: 3.5.3, 3.9.2, 4.0.0-beta

Search Terms: type guard, incorrect type

Code

function doSomething(value: unknown): object {
  
  if (value !== null && typeof value === 'object'){
    return value //value: object | null
  } 
  if (typeof value === 'object' && value !== null){
    return value //value: object
  } 
  return {}
}

Expected behavior:
The variable "value" is correctly narrowed down to object in both cases

Actual behavior:
The variable is narrowed down to "object | null" in the first case and to only "object" in the second case.
