IIUC .length() and .size() are the same thing, but it's confusing to see
them both used on the same line.
Nitpick, I always favor dealing with error cases first, so you can do
the happy day scenario with less indent. So I'd check the opposite,
throw the error, and continue without the else. YMMV.
Otherwise, LGTM.
