Nothing that you said in this message is correct. You can't "commit"
anything within a function, and bare BEGIN/END don't do anything at
all except create a syntactic grouping.
BEGIN/EXCEPT/END can indeed be used to limit the scope of errors,
but I don't think the way you've described it is a helpful way
to think about it, even with that correction.
