The intent with this function is that it never returns `nullptr` unless the programmer messed up their call of the function (passed in the wrong kind of `Record` kind of problem). All of the callers assume this returns non-null, so I think it's reasonable to assert that the value is non-null by this point.

   if (Ptr && Arg.getValueAsBit("Optional"))
     Ptr->setOptional(true);
 
   if (Ptr && Arg.getValueAsBit("Fake"))
     Ptr->setFake(true);
