Other (describe below)

Description

In the documentation for DbConnectionBuilder indexer, it specifies that "If the specified key is not found, trying to get it returns a null reference"

however, this seems to be inaccurate. if the key is not found it throws an ArgumentException as can be seen in the source here: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/5535e31a712343a63f5d7d796cd874e563e5ac14/src/libraries/System.Data.Common/src/System/Data/Common/DbConnectionStringBuilder.cs
