Anything other than 'got' would go some of the way in disambiguating things.
I forget now what the proposed alternatives were.
If I were starting from scratch, I probably would use 'returned' since
it's a C<return> value.
BUT, 'got' actually works better because it's a much shorter word and
thus makes a good visual cue next to a longer word like 'expected'.
Which is easier to parse visually
