Likely both. structs are not wrapped NSNumbers, NSStrings, NSArrays, NSDictionaries, or NSNulls, and doubles are not NSNumbers.

This confuses me. MKMapView.annotations is an NSArray. How can an NSArray be nil-terminated? It has a count and there's no way to index into it that would return anything but an object. There's no need and no way to terminate it.

It's not magic. All methods that expect objects crash if you give them some other kind of pointer instead.
If, however, jAnnotations is an NSArray, the method should be able to detect that its contents are not of the supported type. The method shouldn't crash.
