The needs and use case for Google, Microsoft, and Facebook are radically different than anyone else. No developer should imitate them blindly because, chances are, the conditions you are working in do not match the big four. There is no ideal way of coding, instead, you match your style to what is needed. I wish more people understood that.

It's an error code, not a massively distributed system. There's no reason why the solution for the "big four" should be different than for anyone else. Especially since their APIs are designed to be used by everyone else.
