So, should we allow nulls in an arrayof-style type hint?


null has its own type, which is mismatching the type required by the
array-of syntax when requesting, for example, Foo[].

If null was allowed in the array, as a user, I'd still be forced to
array_filter() on every call, so it would defeat the new feature
completely.

^^ My general stance.  (Unless an "allow both" syntax is possible; if not, the above.)
