Is there a reason though?🤔

the reason was to mimic Go... after switching between JavaScript and Go projects, I felt the need to try to write in a similar way in JavaScript :P

I got that - sorry if I wasn't clear enough, let me rephrase my question:

Is there a reason to go for a return that can be destructered as [err, value] over one that would be destructered with [value, err]?

I hope I made it understandable now.😇
