Description
Starting over from #444, this github issue is to track error messages that show up in the native JS console, but not in the p5.js web editor console. To be clear, there are likely some error messages that should be hidden in the web editor console so this thread is also for discussion around these questions. This first issue contains a list of all the errors and subsequent comments will include specific code examples to trigger the missing error. Anyone should feel free to jump in and add to the comment thread and I'll keep the list below up to date!
- undefined values
- file not found errors with
loadJSON(),loadImage(), etc. - incorrect renderer, i.e. only available with webgl, etc.
Tagging @almchung as this relates to the Friendly Error System.

Research direction
Start with the context from issue #444 and reproduce the listed file-not-found cases using loadJSON(), loadImage(), and related functions. Compare the native JavaScript console with the p5.js web editor console, then use the comment examples and discussion to determine which errors should appear and what behavior counts as fixed.
