Only one of them needs to be right. As long as one is right,
there is no problem.
Scenario A:
{
fatal_instinct();
catch { punt };
risky_business(); # SYNTAX ERROR!
}
Scenario B:
{
fatal_instinct();
catch { punt };
risky_business(); # exceptions ARE CAUGHT by catch above.
}
Scenario C:
{
fatal_instinct();
catch { punt };
risky_business(); # exceptions are NOT CAUGHT by catch above.
}
Which semantic is "best" is moot.
