If i'm following right the flow of the code, when we hit this lane `pindex` should be always equal to nullptr thus this check may be omitted

/* Make mempool consistent after a reorg, by re-adding or recursively erasing
 * disconnected block transactions from the mempool, and also removing any
 * other transactions from the mempool that are no longer valid given the new
 * tip/height.
 *
 * Note: we assume that disconnectpool only contains transactions that are NOT
 * confirmed in the current chain nor already in the mempool (otherwise,
 * in-mempool descendants of such transactions would be removed).
 *
 * Passing fAddToMempool=false will skip trying to add the transactions back,
 * and instead just erase from the mempool as needed.
