// Go error handling style is practical for majority of errors. However not all
// errors are meaningful and actionable by the caller, so it does not make sense
// to surface them.
//
// Go tacitly acknowledges it by providing functions regex.MustCompile and
// template.Must in the standard library. This library expands on the same idea.
