How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached "ErrorsTest" project
2. Open any Shader Graph (Assets -> ShaderGraphs)
3. With the Shader Graph opened, enter the Play Mode
4. Observe the Console
Expected results: No errors are thrown
Actual results: NullReferenceException errors are thrown
Reproducible with: 6000.0.36f1, 6000.1.0b4
Not reproducible with: 2022.3.57f1
Reproducible on: macOS Sequoia 14.1 (M1)
Not reproducible on: No other environment tested
Notes:
- Can't find a proper regression point due to the bug most likely depending on the ShaderGraph package version
- The errors are gone when entering the Play Mode for the second time
