when using the get_export method, you are supposed to pass an array of event names for mixpanel to pull. Our method was generous and tried to detect a singleton event name and auto-wrap it in an array. Unfortunately, it only looked for a string, so if a unicode event name was passed in, a bad request was generated to mixpanel, since mixpanel requires the passed event argument be a url encoded json array.
what
broadens a check from checking if a string is provided to check instead is a non-None, non-array provided
