At this point I’m still convinced it’s an issue on client side either by sending proper declared JSON but containing the null string instead of the null value itself or because it’s sent as x-www-form-urlencoded (easy to fall into that issue). If you think it’s a DRF bug, you should start writing a test case to demonstrate the issue.
