Suggest answer seems correct: In the event of a network problem (e.g. DNS failure, refused connection, etc), Requests will raise a ConnectionError exception. In the event of the rare invalid HTTP response, Requests will raise an HTTPError exception. If a request times out, a Timeout exception is raised. If a request exceeds the configured number of maximum redirections, a TooManyRedirects exception is raised. All exceptions that Requests explicitly raises inherit from requests.exceptions.RequestException. https://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/quickstart/#errors-and-exceptions

Agree with your analysis, just wanted to piggyback on your comment to point out that the exhibit source code does not include res.raise_for_status() so it won't actually work, as written.
