Okay,so what's a better way to do error handling?

Returning an Either<Result, Error> is pretty much the same thing conceptually. Either you propagate the error or you handle it.

I'm just suggesting that Checked Exceptions aren't well enough adopted and there's grey area between what constitutes a checked / unchecked exception.

I have no problem with Either<Error, Result> though.
