gollark: I feel like having convoluted `match` statements in my code for every operation would be very ææææ - in minoteaur there are sometimes even multiple `?`s per line.

gollark: Basically, if you use `?` on a `Result<T, io::Error>` your function must return `Result<T, io::Error>` (or something with an error type can store `io::Error`s).

gollark: Meanwhile in C you have "error codes" and actually have to pass in output things by reference for stupid reasons and basically have Go-but-worse error handling.
