 Hi @GM_Alex - Thanks for the ticket and for the patch.

 Can you walk through the steps needed to reproduce this? It's true that
 `get_term()` can return a null value, but in `WP_Term_Query`, the term IDs
 pulled from the database or from the cache should always correspond to an
 existing term (and thus `get_term()` should *not* return `null`). I assume
 that you are working with a corrupted cache, or a plugin is filtering the
 term functions in an inconsistent way. This doesn't mean it's not
 something we should fix, but I want to understand the conditions for the
 error before throwing a band-aid over it.
