I do not think you understood the conversation as I did.

Rusts error handling works by defining potential crashes with unwraps. A program never crashes unexpectedly there, as this is where you expect it to crash. The general pattern is fine and widely used, the other commenter did not understand that this kind of behavior results from unwrapping where you really do not want to unwrap.

That's not the case, I understand the issue at hand quite well. Please don't do this.

I didn't reply to your other comment because this conversation isn't/wasn't going anywhere.


Oh, I presumed you didn't because, even when I asked you, you didn't point out why you disliked it, what you would improve or how it compared to alternatives.
