Agreed, in most cases - but there can be (no pun intended.. probably)
exceptions to that.
if cloudy or raining:
print("Bring an umbrella")
else:
print("Looks fair out")
In rare cases, vertical screen space -- and/or even file read and
program performance -- can be affected by the number of lines required
to represent a module.

Here's an attempt to rephrase this slightly, with the following ideas in mind:
* Reduce parser ambiguity
* Support filtering based on specific exception classes
* Rephrase the code to read more closely like natural language
>>> try import A_WINDOW_MODULE but import A_UNIX_MODULE on ImportError
>>> try value = int(x[2]) but value = 0 on IndexError, ValueError
