It definitely looks like a good refactoring, but it does subtly change the
behavior. If the `todo` file could not be found, we previously continued
after printing out an error, but now we return with an error.
Likewise, if the `todo` file existed but had a parse error, we would
print that error _but continue_. This is definitely a bug, if you ask me.
Now, this might be a desirable change in the first place: if an `exec`
command removed the `todo` file, changes are that the user wanted to
abort, right? And the bug needs to be fixed, too.
It does need to be called out in the commit message, though.
Thank you,
