Missing Exit.getOrUndefined, et al. about effect HOT 4 OPEN

Should we really promote skipping handling an Exit like that when the alternative is to opt-into an Option / Either instead of an exit to begin with? 🤔

from effect.

We probably shouldn't promote it but the api should probably be consistent with Either. I have a bit of an edge case where I have to run Effect.runExit() and then return undefined if the effect fails.

whats runExit?
@jessekelly881 I think this would cover your case fine tbh

const val = Effect.runSync(Effect.option(effect))
// const val = await Effect.runPromise(Effect.option(effect))
return Option.getOrUnderfined(val)

from effect.

Effect.runPromiseExit sorry. There are plenty of ways to achieve the same result. I just think that Exit should probably have a similarly complete set of getX fns as Either.
