Not sure why people don't like exceptions. Throw different error classes according to the source of the problem and just handle differently in the upper classes. throw new ErrorUser('Bad input') -> Show friendly error messages. throw new ErrorFatal('Db unavailable') -> Email error to dev and quit. I never like the verbosity of returning errors from each methods. How hard is it to trace the stack when you're supposed to be using error logging tools like Sentry?
