Ok, but do you a difference between being recoverable anywhere
and being recoverable at the exit-point of an execution unit like
an Actor/Task?
Whether specific conditions are considered an Error or an
Exception is something on which I have differing opinions than
the language.
Ok, like null-dereferencing and division-by-zero perhaps.
However, I do NOT have a problem with having an
assert/invariant mechanism to help prove my program is correct.
Or rather the opposite, prove that a specific function is
incorrect for a specific input configuration.
The question is, if a single function is incorrect for some
specific input, why would you do anything more than disabling
that function?
