Joe, your argumentation is around how (not) to use exceptions. I can see 
your point and it's valid.
My point is about not to implement exceptions at all.

If exceptions are not intended to be caught, they don't need to be 
thrown (even if the context is different).
If exceptions are not thrown and not caught, we can use "error" in dev 
and some easing severity (warning, zero cost nothing) in prod.

Freely adapted from Murphy: If assertion exception can be catched, it 
will be even in production.
