Comment (by dfeuer):

 @rwbarton, no, I understood that just fine. The trouble is that I don't
 think it's valid to analyze that as bottom when applied to three
 arguments, because then we lose the perfectly well-defined ''action'' of
 throwing a precise exception. Instead of performing that action, we can
 end up throwing an imprecise exception evaluating something we have no
 business evaluating.
