The "err ..." idiom seems too useful to have it break in this case. Afterall, the purpose of "err 0" is to tell the stupid computer that I know what to do with the empty-array scenario.
Feels like fine grained control over fatalness is needed (and not just per-function). For example "use fatal :void_context_only" would be nice, but wouldn't help in this case. This needs "use fatal :void_or_assign".
