Reading the docs, I see this:

```auto
If an error is logged from inside a subflow, the runtime will first check for any Catch nodes inside the subflow. If there are none there, the error will propagate up to the flow containing the subflow instance.

```

Ok.

But say I put a `catch` node is a `subflow`.  
This doesn't explain what I do with the node's output.

Someone - please.

Send it to a subflow output, possibly.
