FWIW, stack traces are part of C++ now and you can construct custom error types that automagically attach them if desired. Result types largely already exist in recent C++ editions if you want them.

I use completely custom error handling stacks in C++ and they are quite slick these days, thanks to improvements in the language.

What I really like to see is stack traces annotated with values of selected local values. A few years ago I tried that in a C++ code base where exceptions were disabled using macros and something like error context passed by references. But the result was ugly and I realized that I had zero chances to adopt it.

With Rust Result and powerful macros it easier to implement.
