I'm referring specifically to the error-handling situation.

If you replace the two-value assignment with an `Either`, it feels very natural to also eschew the constant `if (err != nil) return err` lines, and adopt a continuation-passing style, the way you do with Futures in JavaScript. You could even consider some syntactic sugar around it, like the `?` operator of C# and Kotlin, or a full-on Haskell-like do-notation.

Again, it doesn't seem like this is something that many communities do, in spite of having languages that support it. The '?' operators in the languages you cited, as far as I recall, are specific to null, and don't work on generic option types.
