I think the reason is same as to why multiple subsystems do similar checks.
While many of them don't do anything if they get a NULL pointer and simply
return, which is fine to support cases where NULL is passed.

But I do agree that maybe we may want to make sure opp-table or opp pointers
passed are all valid all the time and so just remove these checks and let them
crash.
