Is this not allowed?

Allowed, but probably in error ... no AttributeError will get through to the except * unless it happened inside the except AttributeError handler. Did you mean:
If obj.func() raises an ExceptionGroup that contains AttributeError then "except AttributeError" doesn't catch it. So it will get through.
try: try: obj.func # function that raises ExceptionGroups except AttributeError: logger.info("obj doesn't have a func") obj.func() except *(AttributeError, SyntaxError): logger.info("func had some problems")
I see this as an argument that the except/except* split is tricky, but I don't think it says anything about whether except* clauses should be able to see into nested ExceptionGroups ... nor am I at all confident that I understood your intent.
