The distinction between public and non public types is unclear to me, also how we guarantee that you can't call this function for a local symbol. But that's something we can tackle independently.
It may help to add some documentation to the query to explain the distinction and for what this query should be used.

I added a docstring to the method that replaces the comment I'd written internally, and tries to explain what the "public type" is. Let me know if it's not clear.
The "public type" is relevant for any symbol that can be seen from outside its own scope: this includes all public symbols, and it also includes all "cellvars" (function-internal symbols that are used by a nested function.)
We may need to refine our terminology here, because this means that even symbols inside a function (which I wouldn't call "public symbols" in terms of cross-module dependency tracking) still have a "public type" which is relevant to type checking.
I don't think we need to "guarantee that you can't call this function" for any symbol. This function shouldn't ever be needed in type inference for purely-local symbols (where every use of the symbol is at a specific known point in control flow and uses only definitions reachable from there), but that's a matter for validating correctness of type inference; this function can return a reasonable result for any symbol (it's just the union of all definitions.)
