Python exceptions considered an anti-pattern

https://sobolevn.me/2019/02/python-exceptions-considered-an-antipattern

While eloquent and thorough, I remain unconvinced that this is a significant improvement over try/except.

It's common enough in some functional languages to have strong support and a long, successful history.

I think it replaces one problem with another. It's not a "solution". It's an alternative. Instead of exceptions being raised, they're returned. Cool.
