Thanks Rob, I can never remember the proper name of that section.
That's the list of error codes to which I was referring. I'm looking at
HTML version of the RPG Reference so I search more easily, but I don't
see references in that document to which operations can cause a given code.
I'm probably overthinking it, but I'm nervous that I'll miss something
important by just reading the list and guessing which operations can
cause which codes.
