TypeError when editing a translate page

[DanielSiepmann]

I tried to debug the issue for a customer, but have zero understand of this extension and its purpose.

The issue is:

(1/1) TypeError

Argument 1 passed to TYPO3\CMS\Backend\View\BackendLayout\BackendLayoutCollection::add() must be an instance of TYPO3\CMS\Backend\View\BackendLayout\BackendLayout, null given, called in /project/web/typo3conf/ext/fluidpages/Classes/Backend/BackendLayoutDataProvider.php on line 92

And it appears when editing the translation record of the root page in TYPO3 CMS 9.5.22. I don't know where to start or which information are necessary, due to the lack of the understanding of this extension.

I found out that this change would fix the issue, but as I lack the understanding, I'm not sure if this would be a fix or instead would hide a different issue, like miss configuration.
