Review Comment:
   We can do that but how do we differentiate between genuinely empty list and 
empty list as the result of some error? (as I assume we would return empty list 
when we catch an exception).
   
   If there is some bug in `CompressionDictionary.createFromRowLightweight`, or 
in the processing logic as such, and we throw, then we will happily return 
empty list and we will act as if nothing happened. 
   
   I would at least log in catch before returning empty list, same when 
returning null from other methods so we have at least some chance to see what 
went wrong.
