No you misread my refutation, I make no claims of the errorness or exceptionness of dividing by 0, merely that your proposed example doesn't support your claim

No you misread my refutation, I make no claims of the errorness or exceptionness of dividing by 0, merely that your proposed example doesn't support your claim that it depends on the nature of the application. I claim that unchecked user input falls into the category of 'error' and that clearly is what has occurred in your proposed example.
