O2 doesn't "catch" events at all.

No, it does. I wouldn't say it if it didn't. "Catch" is short for "contains a procedure that is the event handler of an event of" - I thought, this is a common term.

In .NET, "catch" is typically used for exceptions, while "handles" is typically used for events.

While I might find less point in quibbling over the semantics than John, if we're going to argue about common usage, John's point is correct. "Catch" is not at all a common term used to describe event handling.
