    You talk about “non-absolutist,” but this thread got started because the parent comment said “literally never.”

    I am literally making the point that the absolutist take is bad, and that there are good reasons to call unwrap in prod code.

      Don’t get angry with me my friend. We are more in agreement than not re panics (not .unwrap(), another comment coming).

      Maybe I’m wrong, but I understood ‘literally’ in ‘literally never’ in the way young people use it, which doesn’t really mean ‘literally’, and is just used to convey exaggeration.
