Comment (by joyously):

 The function already returns the Post object, so the status can be
 checked, if needed.
 This seems a bit edge-case since this function would not be encountered by
 the user, and a plugin author could just as easily use `get_post` with
 more parameters, like this function does.
 There are also other `get_page_by*` functions that behave the same as this
 one.
