Tests:

== null
let isIterable; for (const value of values) { isIterable = value != null && typeof value[Symbol.iterator] === "function"; }
implicit boolean conversion
let isIterable; for (const value of values) { isIterable = value && typeof value[Symbol.iterator] === "function"; }
explicit boolean conversion
let isIterable; for (const value of values) { isIterable = !!value && typeof value[Symbol.iterator] === "function"; }
typeof + triple equals null
let isIterable; for (const value of values) { isIterable = typeof value !== "undefined" && value !== null && typeof value[Symbol.iterator] === "function"; }
