Besides, null is a perfectly valid value for a property, just as 0. Working with API Platform, I couldn’t tell the number of times I used this kind of statement:
if (property || property === null) {
// do some stuff
}
Probably just as much as
if (property || property === 0) {
//do some stuff
}
In the case of a non-existing property, the value would be undefined rather than null.
And while == and != exist in JavaScript, most linters will throw an error and require a === and !== instead as they should be avoided.
