Passing nil as an argument to 'ExtractIntoStructPtr' or 'ExtractIntoSlicePtr' causes "panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference". This is an invalid argument and should be corrected to return an error. For reference, standard package functions such as 'json.Unmarshal' return an error instead of panic.
