cant practically anything throw an exception given the right (sometimes extremely remotely possible) circumstances?

Not really. Exceptions are a controlled way of indicating something went wrong in an application.

The only point where you wouldn't know about the possibility of one is when you don't know enough about the language features you're using or when you use a badly documented library or framework.

dont many of the language primitives confer the possibility of thrown exceptions?
