I didn't gain any traction in my message to the dev list about using any exit codes other than `0` and `1`, but at the same time felt that some distinction was warranted in the different places that `System.exit` had been called. Then again, I just finished ripping out dead code that had been in place "for future development," so perhaps I should keep it simple for now and not do the work of future extensibility that may or may not ever arrive.
