Review Comment:
   
   > That is what i was getting at, if getLong/getFloat/getDouble are going to 
throw exceptions, then this should too, since it should only be called if you 
are planning on calling one of those methods.
   
   I think it should throw an exception because `null` can't be represented as 
a primitive; it could highlight that you should call `isNull` first - I can 
revert that change; but I think those default values may only help to hide 
bugs....
   
   > [...] NullableNumericAggregator is only for things that are going to be 
calling [...]
   
   that sounds rather odd - there are no interfaces enforcing that contract; it 
only requires that the `selector` implement `BaseNullableColumnValueSelector` ; 
and because of that object which implement that should work with it
   
   This `ObjectColumnSelector` class provides `getLong` and  friends based on 
`getObject` which is exactly how its services are used 
[here](https://github.com/apache/druid/blob/0516d0dae432058848806e49e71ac73333bf751c/processing/src/main/java/org/apache/druid/query/rowsandcols/semantic/DefaultFramedOnHeapAggregatable.java#L554-L575)
   
   >This does not violate it, because no one should ever call
   
   "no one should ever call" : that can't be enforced; it
   providing a `return false` implementation is wrong - and a violation of the 
contract in this case.
   
   > Calling isNull if you intend to call getObject is violating the contract.
   now you lost me...then why implement `ColumnValueSelector` at all?  or not 
just throw exceptions from all of them?
   this seems like some kind of design issue...
   
   I think a possible alternate way to fix this could be to *not* implement 
`isNull` in `ObjectColumnSelector` and force classes extending it to provide 
their own implementation - what do you think ?
