// Using catch-all error types like `Box<dyn Error>` isn't recommended for
// library code where callers might want to make decisions based on the error
// content instead of printing it out or propagating it further. Here, we define
// a custom error type to make it possible for callers to decide what to do next
// when our function returns an error.
