This recent post resonated with me: https://cedardb.com/blog/exceptions_vs_errors/ https://cedardb.com/blog/exceptions_vs_errors/
There are certain obvious (and some less obvious) benefits to both exceptions and results, but I get the impression a lot of programmers have overreacted against exceptions.
Exceptions "just work" the same in every codebase and require little boilerplate in most languages. I think results really shine for internal business logic where errors are more "invalid" than "exceptional."
