Comment (by johnthagen):

 Looking into this closer, it looks like this is actually valid Python:
 https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-raise-statement

 "If it is a class, the exception instance will be obtained when needed by
 instantiating the class with no arguments."

 I'll leave the ticket open to see if the Django team wants to still fix
 this for style consistency purposes.
