   > I am sorry, but this is not right. I don't think the leaf can be `null`, 
by construction. The (future) `leaf` is always dereferenced by the `TreePath` 
constructor:

   > 
   > `TreePath.getParentPath()` may return `null`, and that will be the culprit 
here. I think there should be a test for `tp == null`, and probably `return 
null;`. Testcase is:

   >         HintTest.create()
   >                 .input("""
   >                        package test;
   >                        public class Test {
   >                        }
   >                        return;
   >                        """,
   >                        false)
   >                 .run(RemoveUnnecessary.class)
   >                 .assertWarnings();
   >     }

   Your test points exactly at the culprit, it becomes red, the true colour of 
a useful test, when I comment the solution out.
   So your solution (and added test) it is.
   
   Thanks mbien and lahodaj.
