   I got a little bit further with finding the root cause of why `start_date` may be null: when one transitions the state of the DagRun from `failed` to `running` using the form that appears at `http://<airflow_host>/dagrun/edit/<dag_id>`, then that form will cause the `start_date` for the DagRun to be cleared.
   
   For reasons still unclear to me, the scheduler then decides it is necessary to transition the DagRun into a `failed` state (even though there may be tasks that haven't ran) and this subsequently causes the TypeError to be raised in `_emit_duration_stats_for_finished_state()`.
