I personally think g_assert is the proper way to check that functions
do not accept invalid objects.
I'll prefer the usage of attribute(nonnull) and tools like coverity
instead.
The fact that function callers check for NULL at the end does not mean
that the functions can return NULL on invalid input, means that some
error can lead to NULL as result of the execution of these function,
passing NULL is an error of callers.

This new regression does not make sense to me.
