eslint/preserve-caught-error Suspicious
What it does
Enforces that when re-throwing an error in a catch block, the original error is preserved using the 'cause' property.
Why is this bad?
Re-throwing an error without preserving the original error loses important debugging information and makes it harder to trace the root cause of issues.
