I think it may no be necessary as we check if the analyzed function is a "real" main function with the isMain() call 
```
const auto *FD = dyn_cast<FunctionDecl>(C.getLocationContext()->getDecl());
  if (!FD || !FD->isMain() || FD->param_size() < 2)
    return;
```
If this passes, then the types should be ok.
