Nothing short of impressive. I was watching Richard's "Introduction to Roc Programming Language", and the http error (on the client side) is nothing short of impressive. However, coming from Elm decoders, I found it super strange that the HttpDecodingFailed does not have a payload with the actual error "Expected to find a string with name 'message'" or something. I am sure there is some technical decision/limitation behind this. I tried searching Zulip for "HttpDecodingFailed" but I didn't get a single hit (:interrobang:), so that is why I am asking here if the reason for the lack of payload is due to a technical limitation, of if this is something that has been planned for future versions of the API.
