Why does CAD directly require two different exceptions packages? I understand that sometimes a dependency requires a package that is redundant to another or the one you selected, but that is not the case here.

I had a look at the source code for CAD, and it would be trivial to
patch to replace Exception::Class::TryCatch with Try::Tiny.

I suggest you just log a report with RT (or whatever the author prefers)
asking for this.

If I wasn't so lazy (today) I'd submit a patch myself. You could.

I agree. It's a long story, and I can almost resist the urge to say
something ...
