Safe way to query for the existence of a CKRecordZone?

There's some logic in my app that first checks to see if a specific CloudKit record zone exists. If it doesn't, it creates the zone, and then my application continues on with its work.

The way I've implemented this right now is by catching the zoneNotFound error when I call CKDatabase#recordZone(for:) (docs) and creating the zone when that happens:

      do {
        try await db.recordZone(for: zoneID)
      } catch let ckError as CKError
                where [.zoneNotFound, .userDeletedZone].contains(ckError.code)
      {
        // createZone is a helper function
        try await createZone(zoneID: zoneID, context: context)
      }

This works great, but every time I do this, an error is logged in CloudKit Console, which creates a lot of noise and makes it harder to see real errors.

Is there a way to do this without explicitly triggering a CloudKit error?

I just found CKDatabase#recordZones(for:) (docs), which seems like it returns an empty array instead of throwing an error if the zone doesn't exist.

Will calling that and looking for a non-empty array work just as well, but without logging lots of errors in the console?
