I dispute that a small allocation to store a stack trace from throw point
to handler (8 bytes per frame!) is noticeable next to the current cost of
exception handling. As for the specific use cases, see above - this is
something that is frequently requested by users.

Stating something multiple times doesn't make it a fact. Exceptions are
used as a tool for handling bugs in real-world code, whether or not you
approve of that use.
