Applied. But I'd far prefer to see type ErrorReason = String removed. If
we want a clearer return type than Maybe String, we should use an actual
data type, e.g.
data ErrorResult = Error String | NoError
This is a little tedious, but far better, as "Nothing" is the conventional
error result in the Maybe monad.
