Of course I've rewritten this as:

if let Some(&node) = transitions.get(b.as_ref()).and_then(|&x| self.nodes[x].transitions.get(a.as_ref()))

But it still looks like a bug to me, because #53667 is marked as completed and closed.

The PR that stabilized let chains (#132833) will be in Rust 1.88, so you’re one version too early.
