 This rule has three main options and one override option to allow some coercions as required.
 
-* `"boolean"` (`true` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns shorter type conversions for `boolean` type.
-* `"number"` (`true` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns shorter type conversions for `number` type.
-* `"string"` (`true` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns shorter type conversions for `string` type.
-* `"allow"` (`empty` by default) - Each entry in this array can be one of `~`, `!!`, `+` or `*` that are to be allowed.
+-   `"boolean"` (`true` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns shorter type conversions for `boolean` type.
+-   `"number"` (`true` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns shorter type conversions for `number` type.
+-   `"string"` (`true` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns shorter type conversions for `string` type.
+-   `"disallowTemplateShorthand"` (`false` by default) - When this is `true`, this rule warns `string` type conversions using `${expression}` form.
+-   `"allow"` (`empty` by default) - Each entry in this array can be one of `~`, `!!`, `+` or `*` that are to be allowed.
 
 Note that operator `+` in `allow` list would allow `+foo` (number coercion) as well as `"" + foo` (string coercion).

 ### allow
 
 Using `allow` list, we can override and allow specific operators.
