That's this bit:

```
    except (A, B):
           ^^^^^^
```

bpo-43149 currently calls it an "exception group", but that conflicts with PEP 654 -- Exception Groups and except*

```

   >>> try:
   ...   pass
   ... except A, B:
   ...   pass
   Traceback (most recent call last):
   SyntaxError: exception group must be parenthesized
```

some alternatives:

exception classinfo must be parenthesized (classinfo so named from the parameter to issubclass)
exception sequence must be parenthesized
