Knowing that an error occurred and handling this error inside of the process when it occurs are separate things? Having the information after the fact doesn't allow you the ability to go back to a process to then properly handle things. Once the process is complete, that's it. In cases of debugging just having the information may be enough. But debugging is part of the development process. When in a production environment and things go astray just knowing that they've gone astray after the fact doesn't do you any good whatsoever.
