 Review comment:
   Actually moving this code in a separate function would be more untidy 
(common code in this case would be just `validateToken(token)` and try catch). 
I don't like the fact that `validateToken(token)` throws an exception instead 
of returning `true` or `false` that would be a major change to do here. The 
main function that calculates JWT value `getJWTTokenExpiration(token)` is 
common for both implementation. Let me know if you still feel strongly about it.
