How do you define errors?
Sealed classes in combination with a library like https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result will get you what you need. Essentially at that point you'll be doing error handling the way you would in Rust, where a 1-level deep sealed class containing data classes as children act as the root error type and each of its variants. If you have errors coming from two different domains you just create a wrapper error type for each domain.

Result Class with Generic Type for both Success and Failure States
This is a great result lib: https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result

Is runCatching in use in any of your projects ? My team is abusing it
Lastly I do not like kotlin's Result and we use the kotlin-result library which is more expressive and not tied to Throwable (similar to Arrow's Either).

Struggling with software robustness with Kotlin
In my own code, I started to use explicit error handling. I'm currently experimenting with Result (from https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result) and Raise (from https://arrow-kt.io/).

Thoughts on Kotlin Multiplatform?
un-related to multiplatform i've found it extremely helpful to wrap things in a Result type. If something can throw an error, it get's a Result return type. It sounds like that would help your use case too. The built in Result may be useful too

Programming with Result
This is a better impl.
- It seems like I'm forced to make this choice at least once a day

Are nearly all your functions suspend?
Using a result type can help to differentiate quite nicely. https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result

If I wanted to modify the Kotlin grammar, how would I go about doing that?
As of right now, Arrow Meta is the only library I am aware of with which you can productively write compiler plugins.

Crystal Lang 1.0 Release
Thanks for the example, that's interesting.
Note that Kotlin has union types through this compiler plugin: https://github.com/arrow-kt/arrow-meta/issues/570
