i think this is correct but i've hacked around it locally so won't push for it

I think the result is not correct here, esp/ since we should only put a type on the target of the ref and only it it's nullable, right?

I think you're right it's only needed if it's nullable, but putting it on the target of the ref won't solve the issues i linked in the Issue
