I proposed an improvement to removing the "try:...except:".

  The improvement would address your concerns (loosing information
  about the actual problem) but still retain a single defined
  exception (which would help users to catch the exception, if relevant).

  I would cost you a few lines of additional code.

  These few lines of code were to complex in your opinion....
