Having unused 'mergedProps' parameter on 'connect' throws error on component rendering

I'm using Redux for my current Typescript React project and have a bit of a hard time to get into it. Connecting components works fine so far for me though.

interface OwnProps {
    ownProp?: boolean;
}

interface PropsFromState {
    stateProp: any;
}

interface PropsFromDispatch {
    dispatchProp: (...) => void;
}

type MyComponentProps = OwnProps & PropsFromState & PropsFromDispatch;

class MyComponent extends React.Component<MyComponentProps> {...}

const mapStateToProps = ({ componentState }: IAppState, ownProps: OwnProps): PropsFromState => {
    return {
        stateProp: componentState.stateProp,
        ownProp: ownProps.ownProp,
    };
};

const mapDispatchToProps = (dispatch: any): PropsFromDispatch => {
    return {
        dispatchProp: (...) => dispatch(dispatchProp(...))
    };
};
export default connect<PropsFromState, PropsFromDispatch, OwnProps>(
    mapStateToProps,
    mapDispatchToProps
)(MyComponent);

Just recently though I tried to put a ref on a connected component, where I found out that I had to enable the forwardRef option. So I updated the connection call to

export default connect<PropsFromState, PropsFromDispatch, OwnProps>(
    mapStateToProps,
    mapDispatchToProps,
    null,
    { forwardRef : true }
)(MyComponent);

But because I had to put the third parameter for mergedProps in between (which I thought could default to null without any issues), tslint now throws an error for me when I try to render the component, saying something like

<MyComponent ownProp ref={ref => this.comp = ref}/>

Type '{ ownProp: true; ref: (ref: Component<Pick<MyComponent, "ownProp" | "stateProp" | "dispatchProp"> & OwnProps, any, any>) => Component<...>; }' is missing the following properties from type 'Readonly<Pick<MyComponentProps, "ownProp" | "stateProp" | "dispatchProp"> & OwnProps>': stateProp, dispatchProp - ts(2739)

Seems like the component now requires the other props where it shouldn't require them. Any idea how to deal with this?
