  /**
   * Returns the result of calling {@link Future#get()} uninterruptibly on a task known not to throw
   * a checked exception. This makes {@code Future} more suitable for lightweight, fast-running
   * tasks that, barring bugs in the code, will not fail. This gives it exception-handling behavior
   * similar to that of {@code ForkJoinTask.join}.
