App crashes on Android 10 (InflateException in layout/abc_screen_simple line #17)

Ok to start off, I tried all the other answers on here (some examples here, here), to the point that I even went to the 5th page of Google search.

The Problem

My app works perfectly fine when i set targetSdkVersion <= 28 but if i set it to anything higher (29, 30) the app crashes on startup for Android 10 devices. I don't have any of the Calligraphy libraries, i don't have any abc_screen_simple layout in my files. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Logcat (Updated)

So thanks to @CommonsWare comment i was able to fix the issue by removing

implementation 'com.asha.nightowllib:nightowllib:0.2'

This library was the reason the app was crashing on Android 10 devices for some reason.

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.Object java.lang.reflect.Field.get(java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference
    at com.asha.nightowllib.inflater.InjectedInflaterBase.getConstructorArgs(InjectedInflaterBase.java:81)
        at com.asha.nightowllib.inflater.LastChance2Inflater.lastChance2CreateView(LastChance2Inflater.java:22)
        at com.asha.nightowllib.inflater.InjectedInflaterV11$PrivateFactoryWrapperImpl.onCreateView(InjectedInflaterV11.java:189)

To anyone in the future that may get a similar crash happening, look into your stack trace for any references to a library you added, that may be the culprit.
