Gagan's response lacks depth and does not address the question directly. The response is vague and does not demonstrate an understanding of exception handling in Python. The benchmark response provides a clear and detailed explanation of using try-except blocks to handle file-related exceptions gracefully, which Gagan's response fails to do. To improve, Gagan could have explained the use of try-except blocks, specific exceptions like FileNotFoundError and IOError, and the importance of logging errors for further analysis.
