Depending on the language it either does nothing and just adds code bloat or (and this would be much worse) it will catch any exception that can be implicitly cast to type Exception and throw it as type Exception. So the next higher scope would not be able to catch e.g. a RuntimeException or w.e. to handle appropriately. It could only catch a regular Exception even if the original error was a more detailed type.
It’s C# so it’s just rethrowing the original exception.
It might also be messing with the stack trace though which can be a bit frustrating for future debugging. But that’s only a vague recollection of something I read in the past so I could be wrong
Lol what’s wrong with this if the parent function catches it

You could just not catch it and it’ll get thrown up the stack anyway.
