Perhaps a compromise could be to add a keyword parameter to request such an exception?
But who is going to bother using such a keyword, when it's not necessary for correct operation of the program in the absence of bugs?
(We could even add three options: truncate, pad, error, with truncate being the default, and pad being the old map() and filter() behavior.)
This seems to fall foul of the no-constant-parameters guideline.
