Hi,
I just stumbled across a strange piece of code, and I am wondering about
the reasons behind it:
FileSystemStorecreationTime: aPath
self
nodeAt: aPath
ifPresent: [ :entry | ^ self basicCreationTime: entry ]
ifAbsent: [ ^ false ].
In what case does returning false make sense?

methods should return one single type of object. The only question: what time
should be returned? Or should it be nil?

exception sounds reasonable to me, since you will usually know if a path exists
beforehand.
