This following portion of the documentation is incorrect, strictNullChecks does not have to do with the "not all code paths return a value" check, it is noImplicitReturns that checks this.

If using strictNullChecks and doing exhaustive checks, TypeScript might complain "not all code paths return a value". You can silence that by simply returning the _exhaustiveCheck variable (of type never).
