Well, if I have it surrounded by a try/except block, presumably I'm aware that an exception could be raised. ;)
And if I'm aware that an exception could be raised, it may also be possible that I want to change the exception -- leading to the three possibilities I described earlier.
Looking through my dbf module, most of those re-raises I'll be changing to use the raise ... from ... syntax, but there are still a couple places where it makes no sense to have the extra nested information available.
