The reason is because the send command first tries to send a message and if it’s not found it tries to do the message as a script snippet in the context of the target object. Previously errors in this second stage weren’t being kept on the error stack so the caller wasn’t notified correctly of the errors. Now they are but this change is a side effect in the specific case of a handler that isn’t found. Trevor is completely correct that dispatch is the better solution for this use case and I should have thought of that!
