Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com> added the comment:
Fair enough.
For an example, here's the case where I wanted to use the decorator to avoid
excess indentation and keep the most meaningful part of the function at the
base of the body:
@suppress(KeyError)
def v12_to_13(manager, case):
case['sample_id'] = case.pop('caseid')
In my opinion, it's nominally nicer and clearer than:
def v12_to_13(manager, case):
with suppress(KeyError):
case['sample_id'] = case.pop('caseid')
But I see your points about encouraging overly-broad catching of exceptions...
so it's better to have the indentation as something of a wart to dissuade
excess wrapping.
