This is clearly an improvement. My question is: is it okay to backport this to 3.9 and 3.10? I think we have a rule that it's okay to change the exception text, but I'm not sure how that applies to micro releases (3.9.x, 3.10.1).

"better" != "bug fix", so I wouldn't change it in a micro release. -- ~Ethan~
