Not very, but I didn't make this argument to begin with, other people did. It was a sticking point when the idea was first put forth. I personally supported adding the attributes, but people kept pushing against it.

I'm not sure I follow that. The traceback gets created anyway,
so how is it going to use more memory if it's attached to a
throwaway exception instead of kept in a sys variable?
It won't.
If you keep the exception around, that would keep the
traceback too, but how often are exceptions kept for long
periods after being caught?
