If you want error silencing by default, Python is not the language you are looking for. We can agree to disagree, if you like. But taken to the limit, the Zen you quoted would prevent the try except clause from being used. No, that is what "unless explicitly silenced" means - you are proposing to silence them without an explicit try except clause. Michael

Who, me? The containment checking code would contain the try/except, I was proposing.
