   -1.
   
   We assert that we get the `ok` we expect. If we don't, we want the process to crash, which it does.
   
   Adding error handling code for errors we don't intend to handle (in the sync case, you immediately throw it anyway) is an anti-pattern in erlang, though common (or mandatory) in other languages.
