I noticed these errors after updating my companies app to elixir 1.20. The main change is in
from_string/1. Our tests were passing by accident. After reviewing it the old code, I didn't think thewithwas providing value. In reality it was likely making errors cases harder to understand. So, to make the errors more obvious I opted to raise an explicit ArgumentError if this function fails. This felt like the right call to make because we're returningTimestamp.t()and not{:ok, Timestamp.t()}, and because its really unlikely that anyone will call this function with anything other than a stringified Timestamp. But, its probably debatable. If other people feel strongly I can re-work this code.
