    This is a nice example where 1TBS would have been superior (I imagine removing braces altogether is impossible).

    Why is that one Null in all caps? And why not just iterate over args?

    You need to get used to === or !== instead of == and !=. And simply check the type you comparing. The code here might still not work if value is empty string or undeclared.
