   We should consider either performing a text cutoff (in certain positions) on union/intersection members for quick info, or just consider using the type alias in those positions.

   Just showing the alias is the right thing to do here. An alias serves mainly as documentation in Typescript, and intellisense tooltips are documentation.

   I think we'd be willing to take a PR on this if anyone's interested. The reason I listed this as moderate is because the code for the display part writer is a little hairy.
