> As described in [1], it's not a good practice to catch {{Throwables}} in 
> Scala catch blocks because Scala uses some special exceptions for the control 
> flow. Therefore we should check whether we can restrict ourselves to only 
> catching subtypes of {{Throwable}}, such as {{Exception}}, instead.
