terser reads a variable as nullish only when its fixed value is stored as a node, so a `const d = void 0` read more than once keeps every `d?.(…)`. Refs terser/terser#1400
… the minifier An exposed variable stays declared, so folding its `?.` read to `void 0` saves no bytes and can cost gzip.

Summary
Refs terser/terser#1400. terser treats a variable as
null/undefinedonly when reduce_vars stored its value as a node. Aconst debugLog = undefinedread more than once is stored lazily, so everydebugLog?.(…)stays. With improvements on, the compressor'sisNullOrUndefinednow also readsfixedValue, so the?.chain folds tovoid 0and the dead calls drop. With improvements off the output still equals terser's.Input (
{ module: true, compress: { passes: 4 } }):const o=void 0;o?.("one"),o?.("two"),o?.("three");The other rows of this audit batch were checked on

Summary by CodeRabbit
nullorundefinedare now handled correctly, including when their values are resolved lazily. This can remove calls that cannot run while preserving code that affects program behavior. Optional property reads on exposed global constants retain their existing behavior.
