Review Comment:
hmmm, I don't really follow. getWireToken already returns Pair<TokenType,
String> which is essentially the same thing, no? Are you suggesting that we
refactor that to push it through the JWTToken ctor and catch an exception on
every passcode use? Throwing exceptions for flow control is generally a poor
practice for performance and design reasons. The current implementation only
throws exceptions in exceptional conditions. Are you suggesting something other
than my assumptions here?
