Not for silent failure. This soft of change means that tons of systems will fail in unexpected ways in unexpected places, and often people will never know about it. It's a security nightmare.
Ripping the band-aid off is much more compelling when it will result in an exception. Silent failure, though. Ugh, if you actually care about writing reliable software, it's the worst.
