Phpstan is not recognizing my abstract class

Question

I have a request with an authorize method that makes use of:

Illuminate\Http\Request::user()

And it gives me a phpstan error that says

phpstan: Cannot call method hasAnyRole() on App\Models\User|null.

And that makes sense.

So I made an abstract class that makes use of

Illuminate\Http\Request::user()

like this:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Requests;

use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;

abstract class VbpRequest extends FormRequest
{
    /**
     * Get the user making the request.
     *
     * @param string|null $guard
     * @return User
     * @throws AuthenticationException
     */
    public function user($guard = null): User
    {
        $user = parent::user($guard);

        if ($user instanceof User) {
            return $user;
        }

        throw new AuthenticationException('Trying to resolve a user, but no one is logged in.');
    }
}

In theory this should only return an instance of the User model or an exception.
but when I use this new method it gives me the exact same phpstan warning.

phpstan: Cannot call method hasAnyRole() on App\Models\User|null.

Does anyone have an idea of what is going wrong or could be going wrong?

Here is the Request:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Http\Requests;

use App\Models\Role;
use App\Traits\RequestCast;
use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;
use Illuminate\Validation\Rule;

class BelnotitieRequest extends VbpRequest
{
    use RequestCast;

    /**
     * @throws AuthenticationException
     */
    public function authorize(): bool
    {
        return $this->user()->hasAnyRole(Role::ADMIN_ID, Role::PROJECTMANAGER_ID, Role::ADMINISTRATIEF_MEDEWERKER_ID);
    }
}

I'm using Laravel 9.24 and larastan 2.1.12
