Expected behavior

This error should not be thrown.

This is the failing code:

ngAfterViewInit() {
        this.rootEl = this.el?.nativeElement;
        if (this.rootEl) {
            this.rootEl?.setAttribute(this.attrSelector, ''); // maybe an additional check is needed here to see if the element has the setAttribute method ?
        }
    }
