I don't agree. Exception handling can be used to handle a situation which 
deviates from a nominal action, thus it can be used to escape from the current 
action and switch for the new one. Such situations are common, due to the 
environment uncertainty, and it can be an efficient mechanism to handle, e.g., 
choosing one way among a set of possibilities to reach a goal in a changing 
context.
