Many times I've had to say NO DONT DO THAT! to people writing giant try/except blocks in Python. Usually the answer is to wait for an actual exception and if it's not something you could actually anticipate, then write a tiny try block that just handles the exception. The whole point being that I want it to fail if there is an unknown exception. Which in Go, you wont fail at runtime if you are just printing errors as a habit( I think, I have not done much with go). That said, a lot of times it makes sense to return errors, and perhaps there in lies the difference between an exception and an error.
