There’s no such thing as bad data, only shitty code to create it or ingest it, and bad testing that failed to detect the shitty code. The overflow of the magic config-file size threw an exception, and there was no handler for that? Jeez Louise.
And as for unhandled exceptions, you’d think static analysis would have detected that.

Someone should make a programming language like Rust, but that doesn’t crash.
