There are very few places where errors can be handled gracefully. They are

I think it's far better for the QOM infrastructure to assert when it detects

errors gracefully
Last time I was trying to argue for keeping the "create, set properties,
realize" interface for devices/objects as simple as possible you wanted
it to have an error-return interface rather than asserting...
