  Printing is not a general solution, because it means that
  these functions can only be used in console programs and when
  printing each exception is wanted.

  But the exceptions will not be visible when the program is
  using a GUI oder a speech interface. And it will be difficult
  to log the exceptions.

  This explains, why Java does not uses this as a »general
  solution«.

  General operations should not assume that the application
  has a specific interface and just return values, they should
  not do any I/O unless this happens to be their purpose.
