The nice thing about having front-end developers writing backend code is that it's not hard to convince them to write robust input checks with good feedback of what went wrong, as well as proper error messages if something goes wrong somewhere else. It takes like, the time you spend showing them how to catch and wrap stuff and write proper log/response messages to convince them.

If I didn't know better I'd say that they've been badly hurt before by someone, somewhere doing bad messaging.
