IMO it would make more sense to write `except all E`, but `all()` is a built-in and so this would be at odds with (1). [`try: .. except group:` already being valid syntax today ]
If anything, that makes "except all E" less of a problem; the built-in all is not an exception, so any current meaning would be, at the least, a dodgy renaming of a built-in to something unrelated -- in which case a reader *should* already be suspicious. -jJ
