It doesn't sound strange, it actually sounds sane and what everyone should be doing.

At the same time, I can't imagine the last time I had a random exception I didn't think about in prod, but I guess that's the whole point of the BEAM, just don't think about it at all.

I might take a stab at Elixir, the concepts seem interesting and the syntax looks to be up my alley.
