What's the deal with Error Handling - Custom Error enum and the different libraries out there.

• either

  3 443 7.3 Rust

  The enum Either with variants Left and Right is a general purpose sum type with two cases.

  

Restricting what can go into a Result in the error variant is quite restrictive. It's often very convenient to use Result as a sort of "this or that" type without any connotations about errors, particularly as an internal convenience. Arguably one might want to use either instead, but it's a lot of ceremony to bring that in for simple use cases.
