Today when I am explaining that in Python 3,
there are two ways to raise exceptions:
raise Exception
raise Exception()
I agree with you that this is annoying. I think it is a holdover from
the past. In Python 1/2, raise 'some string' also works, but that was
disallowed in Py 3. A lot of things were cleaned up in Py 3, but not
everything.
