 [https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration72.incompatible.php#migration72.incompatible
 .no-null-to-get_class introduced a warning] about `get_class(null)`
 though, which became a fatal error in PHP 8.0. You might be confused with
 that ?

 I was confused for a bit here too, because calling `get_class()` without
 an argument
 [https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_1#get_class_get_parent_class_and_get_called_class_without_argument
 was proposed for deprecation in PHP 8.1], but apparently did not get
 enough votes (50/50 split) at the time.

 I see now that there is a
 [https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecate_functions_with_overloaded_signatures#get_class_and_get_parent_class
 newer proposal] as part of deprecating functions with overloaded
 signatures, which did get accepted in PHP 8.3.
