> Errors as values is a far superior approach to exceptions No, it's not. Unhandled errors that aren't noticed just lead to undefined/nondeterministic behavior and some really nasty bugs. And moreover, I literally cannot understand how it is possible for any programmer to not realize this (compare: elixir's approach, which instead embraces errors and restarts processes instantly).
