Why is this thing called "error status"?

Why is error status so significant so that you need to call it a thing,
much less a "core"?

It looks like you basically want to dump error records from a system
which doesn't support GHES into the common path so they get decoded?

I mean, I'm only guessing because I don't get any wiser from this text.

So how about you give the high-level, practical use spiel first? What's
the use case?

Then we can talk implementation details.

Thx.
