Is there a compelling reason to throw an exception when re-releasing a client?

Unless there's a compelling reason to throw when a developer calls client.release
more than once, I'd prefer to see client.release
mutate itself into a noop
the first time it's called - that would be better for developer ergonomics.
Related question: Is there an easy way to determine whether a client has already been released (easier than wrapping client.release()
in a try...catch
block and ignoring the exception)?

It’s a mistake and hiding mistakes is bad.

No, because the pool might return the same client again, as the same object. (It should probably be changed so it returns wrapped clients instead of direct client objects in the next major.)
