Yes, I agree.
But at the time, fighting with Tomcat stack traces was often still preferable to a number of other options at the time.
Its obviously been a while, but IIRC for web stuff if you were not a JAR shop, then you were (probably) using ColdFusion or PHP, because the Microsoft badge couldn't be trusted at the time to be put on the web. And back then PHP was v4/v5 where it deservedly gathered community hate unlike today's pretty decent v7/v8. ColdFusion was generally ok though, but I think its largely going the way of Java these days, overtaken by better tech.
