What is the issue affecting?

Diagnostics/Syntax Checking

Expected Behaviour

I have the minimal example

---@class A
---@field b fun(self: A): table?

---@return A[]
local function get_A()
  local l = {}
  for _ = 1, 10 do
    if math.random() > 0.5 then
      table.insert(l, { b = function(self) return { f = 4 } end })
    else
      table.insert(l, { b = function(self) print("hi" .. tostring(self)) end })
    end
  end
  return l
end

local as = get_A()
for i = 1, 10 do
  local a = as[i]
  if a:b().f > 3 then
    print("yo")
  end
end

The lsp should give me an error about a:b().f as a:b() could be nil.

Actual Behaviour

No warnings are shown.

Reproduction steps

1. Copy the given code into an editor
2. See that no errors are shown

Additional Notes

No response

Log File

No response

Start by running the minimal Lua example in an editor with lua-language-server and confirm that no diagnostic is emitted for a:b().f. Trace the diagnostics/syntax-checking path for chained calls and nullable return values. Done means the example reports that dereferencing a:b() may access a nil value, without introducing unrelated warnings.
