They could even have typed error checking for different errors and an automatic return error syntax.

    { Foo }
    catch (err) {}
    catch (err2){}
    throw

Agreed. The reduction in boilerplate to route error conditions is what we really need, if we are going to add any special error concept. errors.Is/errors.As and the accompanying switch/if statements can quickly consume entire screens of code for all but the most simplest of failure cases and as a result it often sees developers become lazy and just return err instead.
