I would like to - gently - disagree that creating empty files is a workaround. The issue as I see it is that a beginner would not even get to the point of the 'create empty files', he/she would see the exception and get all worried.
This is also problematic when writing an instruction, you tell someone to look for exception as a way to recognizing that they have gotten something wrong. At the same time, currently, you have to also tell them to ignore some other specific exceptions. Makes no sense and makes instructions much longer.
