I do not want to think about every possible error that can happen. I do not want to study every program I call to look for any possible errors. Only errors that are important to my task.
As I said, there are reasons to use this option when the script MUST fail on error.And its helpful for creating the script. I just don't like generalizations to always enable this option.
