Yeah, at the level of *code* the origin doesn't really matter, so re-using the exception type is actually OK. However, for *people* seeing the stack trace, it may be useful to know what's genuinely illegal syntax and what's a limitation of the current implementation. The exception message is a good place for that additional detail.
