No need to change this commit, this is just for the record so I can search the archives for GIGO someday. This is certainly a friendly thing to do, and proxy is so slow that you probably won't be able to measure the effect of the extra if statement, but this would otherwise be an example of a change that violates the GIGO principle (Garbage In, Garbage Out).
This method is often used in loops so normally I would just let it RTE instead of adding an if statement. Again, in FlexJS, I hope we can have friendlier debug versions of things like this so you don't pay in production.
