I cant even opt out of using exceptions? Good thing I didn't waste my time with this lang.

You may have confused the method "expect" as being "except", as in "exception". That's not what it means - it means to "panic" with the given string as the error message. Panics in Rust have some similarities to exceptions in C++, but are not the same thing.
Exceptions don't exist in Rust.
expect is panic, not an exception
