Using The Safe-Navigation Operator To Safely Clean Up Resources In Lucee 5.3.2.77

I know that the "safe navigation" operator has existed in more recent releases of ColdFusion; however, coming from Adobe ColdFusion 10, I haven't been able to use the operator until my team recently switched to using Lucee CFML. As such, I haven't had time to develop consistent patterns around the operator's usage.
