[erlang-questions] Force TLS v1.2

[WW]

But according to spec   the input of the function can be any()! It is obvious the _E  should be considered, otherwise erlang will crash.
Am I wrong?

Because all calls to convert_result_and_exit/1 are either with an 
{'error',binary()} tuple or the 'no_permission' atom.  Thus, Dialyzer 
can figure out that the third clause is unreachable and informs you 
about it.

Effectively, it tells you that you have either made a mistake somewhere 
and you have no call with something other than 'no_permission' | 
{'error',binary()} or you can remove this clause (comment it out).

Once you have done that, perhaps you may also want to strengthen the 
spec of the function.

Remember the slogan: "Dialyzer is never wrong!"
