Hi Dmitry,

It seems odd that you install the new_method even if there was an exception. What if the new_method is not valid because of the exception ?

Also once you've cleared the exception and returned false, the user has no information as to why this failed. I understand we don't want to hit the guarantee here, but it seems there is a hole in the error flow.
