@vkarpov15 we are experienceing this issue on more and more projects... please consider this fix

as i had already noted in #12529 (comment), typeof Query is the correct type, where as just Query would be the wrong type.
This is because by default in typescript a type of a class without typeof refers to a instance of the class, where as with typeof it refers to the constructor / static of a class

It looks like in #12688 the issue is that you're using an older version of TypeScript, v4.6.x. Furthermore, the original issue mentions that this issue shows up in your IDE, not when you actually compile with TypeScript.

Also, as @hasezoey mentioned, the change you proposed is incorrect. We'll investigate and see if there is a better workaround for "this function returns this class" rather than "this function returns an instance of this class" that is compatible with TypeScript 4.6.

typeof this works in TypeScript 4.6, but it doesn't work in TypeScript < 4.4. On the other hand, typeof Query<ResultType, DocType, THelpers, RawDocType>; works fine in TypeScript < 4.4 but not TypeScript 4.6 🤦

I will investigate on my site, as we actually use TS 4.8... something seems to install an old TS Version.. anyways, the issue is like you said and my fix is wrong, you can close my PR.
