OK, I've had a closer look at this. The error message is handled in a
generic manner, where any error that happens during package removal is
reported the same way. Other possible errors might be, for example, dpkg
segfaulting, or the package's maintainer scripts being faulty.

It would be fairly much work (and error-prone itself) to try to parse
the error messages, and since this should be fairly rare, I don't think
it's reasonable to do so, sorry.
