Using the raise syntax, if I'm calling a function that throws throwable, do I have to catch ( { func() }) catch { raise(it) } or is there some other function / syntax I have faield to discover

result { } will turn it into a Result, which you can then bind(). Usually raising Throwable is unusual, though. You likely want to catch a specific exception, and then raise some domain-equivalent

Adding to that, Raise<Throwable> can be somewhat legitimate when used with withError.
Thinking about it a bit, we should probably add a withException or withCatch or something that takes a reified Throwable type and lets you map it to a raised error. I recall needing something like that before.

inline fun <reified T: Throwable, Error, R> Raise<Error>.withCatch(transform: (T) -> Error, block: () -> R) = catch(block) { t: T -> raise(transform(t)) }
