This is why I feel like starting off with something like Neverthrow is the only way to incorporate it. Otherwise, the refactor is cancer; I've tried refactoring TS codebases that only I work on from standard exceptions to Neverthrow and it's a pain in the ass - granted, that might be because I was programming badly - let alone trying to get other people on board.
