But the operative point in this sub thread is whether unwrap() specifically is load bearing.
If instead they bubbled up the error, printed it and then exited the program---without ever using unwrap---then presumably they still would have had a denial of service problem as a result of OOM.
And even if unwrap were load bearing here, then we would be in agreement that it was an inappropriate use of unwrap. But we are still nowhere near saying "unwrap should literally never be used in production."
