@mui/material incompatible with versions of @types/react > 18.2.60

Steps to reproduce

https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/test-w2msfc?file=%2Fsrc%2FInput.tsx%3A9%2C1

Steps:

1. Check TS warning in Input.tsx

Type 'ForwardRefExoticComponent<Omit<InputProps, "ref"> & RefAttributes<unknown>>' is not assignable to type 'FC<InputProps>'.
  Types of property 'propTypes' are incompatible.
    Type 'WeakValidationMap<Omit<InputProps, "ref"> & RefAttributes<unknown>> | undefined' is not assignable to type 'WeakValidationMap<InputProps> | undefined'.
      Type 'WeakValidationMap<Omit<InputProps, "ref"> & RefAttributes<unknown>>' is not assignable to type 'WeakValidationMap<InputProps>'.
        Types of property 'ref' are incompatible.
          Type 'Validator<LegacyRef<unknown> | undefined> | undefined' is not assignable to type 'Validator<((instance: unknown) => void) | RefObject<unknown> | null | undefined> | undefined'.
            Type 'Validator<LegacyRef<unknown> | undefined>' is not assignable to type 'Validator<((instance: unknown) => void) | RefObject<unknown> | null | undefined>'.
              Type 'LegacyRef<unknown> | undefined' is not assignable to type '((instance: unknown) => void) | RefObject<unknown> | null | undefined'.typescript(2322)

Current behavior

Possible but verbose solution without TS error (but is it even legit)?

export const Input2: React.ForwardRefExoticComponent<
  Omit<InputProps, 'ref'> & React.RefAttributes<HTMLDivElement>
> = React.forwardRef<HTMLDivElement, InputProps>((props, ref) => {
  return <MuiInput {...props} ref={ref} />;
});

Expected behavior

According to documentation:
https://mui.com/material-ui/guides/composition/#caveat-with-strictmode

It should be enough be enough to wrapt components like this:

export default React.forwardRef((props, ref) => <Component {...props} forwardedRef={ref} />);
