open() predates context managers, but maybe we need a new convention.

To me anyway, the latter sounds better.
I'm still -0, and maybe now -1 on the idea, mostly because it encourages
an anti-pattern.
But, to continue to paint the shed, shouldn't it be "ignoring", to match
"closing"?
Seriously, "with" is the wrong spelling for this using. It should be
while ignorning(FileNotFoundError)
Insistence on using "with" for the anti-pattern, and proper English,
would require:
with ignorance_of(FileNotFoundError)
:)
"Ignorance" means not knowing, but we _do_ know about FileNotFoundError.
What we want is to ignore it.
