Checking and then opening risks the file being deleted or moved or something between when you check and when you try to open it." Generally, I believe that Python's taste is: try: f = open("my-file") except: [ error handling ] rather than: if not os.path.exists("my-file"): [ error handling ] f = open("my-file") With the same logic applied, if you like to display your custom error message here, more Python-ish code might be: try: [ run clang-tidy ] except FileNotFoundError: print("Command 'clang-tidy' is missing in the system", file=sys.stderr) sys.exit(127) except: [ handle other errors ] I often see, "I observed Python's backtrace, so let's suppress it" for clang-tools scripts. For example, https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210520231821.12272-2-maciej.falkowski9@xxxxxxxxx/ If you believe "our custom error messages are better than the default ones from Python", do you want to insert ones to every code that can fail?
