[issue12535] Chained tracebacks are confusing because the first traceback is minimal

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

I agree with Nick's rationale for the current order, and also like his idea of indicating that the first traceback is truncated (which has not been completely obvious to me). Bike-shedding a bit, I would prefer something more like:

Truncated traceback of caught exception:

The '(most recent call last)' bit is nonsensical when only the most recent call is given.
