Pretty much any thread arguing for having clean-up done when an Error is
thrown instead of terminating ASAP. Usually, folks don't try to claim that
trying to fully continue the program in spite of the Error is a good idea,
but even that gets suggested sometimes (e.g. trying to catch and recover
from a RangeError comes up periodically).
