SQL->executeQuery returns a void object

[Darknetzz]

Given some example function like this:

function countRows(string $table, string $column = Null, string $value = Null) {
    global $sql;
    if (!empty($column) && !empty($value)) {
        $count = $sql->executeQuery("SELECT COUNT(*) as total FROM $table WHERE $column = ?", [$value]);
    } else {
        $count = $sql->executeQuery("SELECT COUNT(*) as total FROM $table");
    }
    $count = $count->fetch_assoc();
    return $count['total'];
}

Intellisense complains about $count = $count->fetch_assoc(); saying $count is void.
Expected type 'object'. Found 'void'.intelephense(P1006)

This was fixed some time ago:
