@lgetwan what do you think? Is there any value in trying to improve the modules in a way that the error message becomes more clear, or would you say the error messages we get are good enough? I tend to lean towards leaving it as it is, because adding some kind of checking would add a lot of overhead to each module, while probably not providing that much more value. We can only make sure the error message we get anyway is as good as possible.

lgetwan commented 2 years ago

Sounds reasonable to me. Let's leave it.
