I think requireNonNull is used more in cases where caller input is being validated and null is not valid. I find this code less readable. There are lots of cases in the JDK code where some object could theoretically be null, but it would be a bug if it was. If it was a normal case for a provider to sometimes be null here, then I would expect this code to check for null and handle it.

@valeriepeng agrees with you Sean. I'll remove `requireNonNull` here and elsewhere unless there is a compelling reason to keep it.
