<div dir="ltr">Look closer and the inconsistency is clear. In both cases the only problem is that the client wants to consume from a queue, but the queue's nonexistence makes that impossible. Yet in one case the channel gets closed; in the other, it doesn't. Why should nonexistent queue at start be a channel exception, but nonexistent queue later not be one? Makes no sense to me. IMO neither case should be a channel exception. Too late to change it of course.<div>
