So, given this discussion, I would like to propose we move forward with the interface as is.
As much as it _looks_ off, I did put a lot of thought into this and given that our brainstorm session here did not yield a better result, it seems appropriate.
This interface catches the reader's attention -- as it should -- because there are nuances on the return value that are only explained by reading the docs.
