PR Checklist
Overview
The rule suggests replacing logical AND operators (&&) with optional chaining (?.) for checking both object reference and property existence.
However, this substitution can unintentionally alter code logic, especially when separate checks for object existence and property values are needed.
The solution provided skips cases involving strict null equality for these particular cases preventing unintended changes to code logic.
