Having programmed for over 30 years, including nearly a decade of C#, I would say exceptions are one of the worst ideas in all of programming.
They are just horrific gotos that any library can invoke against your code. They are pretty much never, ever handled correctly. And nearly always, after an exception is “handled”, the application is actually in an unknown state and cannot be reasoned about.
Even junior engineers have a trivial time debugging most go errors, while even experienced principles struggle with figuring out the true cause of a Java exception.
