A SystemError indicates that an internal API was given bogus input or produces bogus output (i.e. we screwed up somewhere, or a third party is messing with interfaces they shouldn't be)

If data validation fails for part of the public C API (whether it is visible to Python code or not), then ValueError is the right thing to raise.
