- Dylan16807 8y agoThey said the OP misused it largely because the documentation was insufficient, which is a reasonable response. There are different types of error object, and the one used was a poor fit for common, expected errors. What would you have wanted them to do instead?

The author starts by identifying the use of the wrong type. They then immediately blame it on their own documentation in the very next sentence.
