With the decision on whether or not to suppress the context moved out to a 
separate flag, I think we need to allow it. Requiring that the flag be False 
*and* that the context also be None gets us back to asking the question of why 
the flag doesn't work when the context is set to a different value. That 
question was part of the genesis of the Ellipsis-as-sentinel approach in the 
original 409 implementation.

I wouldn't stress too much about the formatting though. Perhaps note in the 
suppress context docs that the output can get *very* noisy if you turn it off 
when both cause and context are set, so while it does display all the exception 
information, the default output isn't going to be very easy to read.
