IDE0270 triggers over a #if

[severity:It bothers me. A fix would be nice]
My code:

var local = VirtualProperty;

#if DEBUG
if (local == null)// IDE0270.
    throw new Exception();
#endif

The suggested fix gives this:

var local = VirtualProperty ?? throw new Exception();

#if DEBUG
#endif

That's obviously a change in behaviour for moving the exception out of the #if, but it shouldn't be trying to use a coalesce expression at all because it would require the ; to be after the #endif which is super ugly:

var local = VirtualProperty
#if DEBUG
    ?? throw new Exception()
#endif
    ;

Leaving my original code without any suggestion would be ideal.
