A raw string cannot end with a backslash.
That's the other way around. There's something you can't do with a raw string that you can do with a regular. But there's nothing you can do with a raw that you can't do with a regular, as can be easily proven by looking at the repr handling - nothing will ever have a repr that's a raw string.
