    // ❌ CRASH 💥
    let resurrectedBananaSquad = try! NSKeyedUnarchiver.unarchivedObject(ofClasses: [NSDictionary.self, NSArray.self, Banana.self], from: encodedData)

@KhaosT is spot on, for this Gist you also need to keep the cast:

let userInfo = coder.decodeObject(of: [NSDictionary.self, NSArray.self, Banana.self], forKey: "userInfo") as? [String: Any]

Y'all the best
