App Crashes due to null value in _Nonnull parameter in YubiKit 4.2.0

The error argument value can still be nil (null) despite being declared _Nonnull

@optional
- (void)didFailConnectingNFC:(NSError *_Nonnull)error;

Swift version

func didFailConnectingNFC(_ error: Error)

Reproduction:

Use YubiKit version 4.2.0 (Did not test version 4.1.0)
App starts a connection to both Lightning (MFI) and NFC.
When the user connects an MFI key, the app will call YubiKitManager method stopNFCConnection()
YubiKitManager calls the delegate method's didFailConnectingNFC() with nil argument.
When app tries to use error or its members, the app crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x0)

Workaround Update on workaround: this only works when SWIFT_OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL = "-Onone". The optimizer will remove the code when set to "-O" for release builds.

App must check if error == nil. If it is, then assume that there is no error, just the app calling stopNFCConnection(). However, the Swift compiler gives a warning:

Comparing non-optional value of type 'Error' to 'nil' always returns false

If a developer is treating warnings as errors, then they will need to make exceptions. (And deal with their security departments.)

Recommendation Specifiy _Nullable for the parameter

Other Notes

The YKFNFCConnection member nfcConnectionErroris declared _Nullable,

@property (nonatomic, readonly, nullable) NSError *nfcConnectionError;

but is passed to the delegate (YubiKitManager)

[self.delegate didFailConnectingNFC:self.nfcConnectionError];

YubiKitManager.m implementation does not declare _Nullable or _Nonnull for error

- (void)didFailConnectingNFC:(NSError *)error {

but YubiKitManager.h interface does declare _Nonnull

@optional
- (void)didFailConnectingNFC:(NSError *_Nonnull)error;

(Adding _Nonnull to the implementation did not cause the compiler to give an error)

- (void)didFailConnectingNFC:(NSError *_Nonnull)error {
