This reminds me when a senior engineer asked me to write exception handling on a one-off python script, not a production code - just a script devs can use internally. The “handling” was that the program should exit when a file is not found. He wanted me to try the file open, except the file error, print “file not found” message and exit(1).
Guess what, genius. Python already does that for you. No need to write an extra wrapper needlessly.
