Why can't I catch GCS excpetions

Question

import com.google.cloud.storage.Blob;
import com.google.cloud.storage.StorageException;
import com.google.cloud.storage.StorageOptions;

public class CleanUp {

    public static void main(String... args) {

        final var storage = StorageOptions.getDefaultInstance().getService();

        var bucketName = Utilities.getBucketName();

        for (Blob blob : storage.list(bucketName).iterateAll()) {
            blob.delete(Blob.BlobSourceOption.generationMatch());
            System.out.println(blob.getName() + " deleted");
        }

        try {
            storage.delete(bucketName);
            System.out.println(bucketName + " deleted");
        }
        catch (StorageException cause) {
            System.err.println(bucketName + " does not exist");
        }
        catch (Throwable cause) {
            System.err.println(bucketName + " does not exist");
        }
    }
 }

But when I run this I get

Exception in thread "main" com.google.cloud.storage.StorageException: The specified bucket does not exist.

Why can't I catch this exception/throwable? What is the GCS API doing to bypass try-catch?

I am running this code from IntelliJ, not from the command line.
