Seems like my previous message was sent with a delay. The problem is that your property is dynamic (the `get ()` part not an assignment )

You could assign `cxt2.expected` to a local variable to circumvent the problem

Even when I switched to lazy (no more get()...)?

I guess intelliJ does not track `lazy` as special case. `by` is delegation and as such re-called everytime. Hence the value could change from call to call

moreover, `lazy` could be unsynchronized in which case it theoretically could happen as well, that the first call returns non-null, where the second returns null

And `lateinit var` would be better? I guess it's not such a big deal, but I'm still wondering about that if (.. is null) ..toBe(null) else ... Now that there's toBe(null), I should have been able to do w/o the extra if, no?

then it's a var and var could change from call to call

assign it to a local variable and all problems are solved :wink:

kotlin can only make a smart cast if it is 100% sure and in all cases you showed it cannot be sure

Ok... but I can't spare the `if` check in the first place (we spoke about this once, I just don't know if the recent changes now permit this...)?

no, I don't indent to add such `or` behaviour.

but you can still use the function I sent you back then

the only or I introduced in Atrium is `isLessOrEquals` which is kind of a special case which is OK IMO
