How is it wrong? At the point where the interpreter says "This exception is now unraisable", what, precisely, is it saying that is wrong? It isn't saying "this has never been raised". It is saying, "where it is currently being processed, this exception cannot be raised". Well, it is saying it. If it's conceptually unraisable, it can't be raised. I know your point is that it is only unraisable now, but that's not the intuitive interpretation.

And what about:

 Exception not propagated from <bound method C.__del__
 of <__main__.C object at 0x7f98b8b61538>>
 ...

Or: Exception that cannot be propagated from <bound method C.__del__ of <__main__.C object at 0x7f98b8b61538>> ...

Cheers. *j
