-1.

Your proposal seems to confuse something we already have in the language to 
handle unwrapping and guarding, to only proceed if the item is non-null: Guard.

We already have a keyword and behaviour that you specify in the “guard” 
behaviour.

Additionally, changing “guard” to be “obtain” would require “obtain” to be 
signficantly better than the “guard” wording - instead, it is significantly 
worse.
