therefore masking the original error.

Yes. But you're still missing the point.

Who is ever going to want to see the original error, if between it occurring and them being able to get their hands on it, the internals have gone on to mess with the context?

Under what circumstances, is that information going to be useful to anyone, if the context has changed in the interim?

I say: no one.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
