Exceptions are often a better way to handle errors than returning them as values. We argue that traditional exceptions provide better user and developer experience, and show that they even result in faster execution.

    Look at gleam and elixir. Both are functional. Both use exceptions, but both also use error values as well. There is no reason why we can’t have both. These are incredibly fault tolerant systems.
