From: Moritz Baumann <moritz.baumann@xxxxxxx> The error handling code path is meant to be triggered when the loop does not exit early via "break". This fails, as the boolean variable "found", which is used to track whether the loop was exited early, is initialized incorrectly. It would be possible to fix this issue by correcting the initialization, but Python supports a for:-else: control flow construct for this exact use case (executing code if a loop does not exit early), so it is more idiomatic to remove the tracking variable entirely. In addition, the error message no longer refers to a variable that does not exist.
