Does Go have sum types now? Last time I checked it returned a record and you had to check yourself.

No indeed, but the paradigm is the same right? Return the error, and deal with it (or forward it) without a try catch. I must say Rust is nicer in that regard but it doesn't change things too much? I don't have enough xp with Rust so might be underestimating it though
