Well, I find it curious that dired of an empty directory or a failing
pattern match should throw an error (as I said, it doesn't on Windows
when using ls-lisp.el), but if that's the usual and time-honored
behavior, who am I to discuss it?

Yes, if (dired "/nonexistent") errors out, we should catch it when
restoring desktop.el. And it shouldn't ever be a with-demoted-errors,
failing to restore buffers in desktop.el is quite silent, just a
message at the end "X frames, Y buffers restored, Z failed to
restore."
