Generics conversion of NSURL to URL in Swift

I just found that NSURL will not automatically show at URL when it is used in Objective-C with Generics.

On the Swift side I have to use this code to cast. Below is the Objective-C code. Shouldn't NSURL be implicitly cast to URL like it is being done on the call to connect but not with the return type for task? Should this be reported as a bug?

let client = Client()
let task = client.getEndpointURL()
if let endpointURL = task.result as URL? {
    client.connect(withEndpointURL: endpointURL)
}
