ASan is too heavyweight for this simple problem. It does not point out the source of the issue as quickly as this simple check which also provides a fix. ASan is meant for the less trivial cases. Is this really such a performance hit? Clang-Tidy already contains lots of checks which target a very narrow pattern.
