How is that better?
Well I anticipate certain compilers will report a warning or even an error when faced with a null pointer being dereferenced.
Which compilers? IMO, you shouldn't make the code even more obscure until it's known for certain to be a problem.
This address dissosiates the pointer from an undefined behavior and is aligned for all types.
