Description
Example error:
Input tables to a
group_bymust be aligned
It would be confusing as hell but it would at least give the user something concrete to report. "Something went wrong" with no info is very frustrating.

Research direction
Start at the OxQL metrics chart error handling and reproduce the example group_by failure. Trace where the API error becomes the current generic message; done means the chart shows useful API error details, such as the concrete alignment message, instead of only “Something went wrong.”
