I actually missed that it was restricted to value classes, thanks for the correction, this is unfortunate. To be fair null-checking (or just documenting null-safety) the data classes is the main use case, as other cases of nullability (class collaborators, eg a repository injected into a service) are usually a bug and quickly fixed. The data that flows through the app at runtime is the big issue, and even just documenting null-safety at the API interfaces goes a long way in making refactorings safer and maintenance less of a pain. Those are usually records nowadays (DTOs, VOs, Entities).
