While doing code reviews, many a times, I have found people using preconditions checks such as “Not Null” in a casual manner rather than based on API contracts requiring pre and post conditions checks. Such checks, at times,  do make code difficult to read, learn or understand. One may want to rather use home-grown or external (proven ones) libraries for doing such checks. Not only does it enhance code readability and learn-ability but also, it does make you aware of contracts you put in the code thereby including only necessary checks and, …
