Script Preparation code:

var result = '';

var data = {
    data: [
        {
            user: {
                location: {
                    address: {
                        street: 'main street',
                    },
                },
            },
               
        },
    ],
};

const iterations = 100;

Tests:

get existing property
for (let i = 0; i < 100; i += 1) { result = _.get(data, 'data.0.user.location.address.street', ''); }
null coalescing existing property
for (let i = 0; i < 100; i += 1) { result = data?.data?.[0]?.user?.location?.address?.street ?? ''; }
get non existing property
for (let i = 0; i < 100; i += 1) { result = _.get(data, 'data.0.user.location.address.zip', ''); }
null coalescing non existing property
for (let i = 0; i < 100; i += 1) { result = data?.data?.[0]?.user?.location?.address?.zip ?? ''; }
