Is it standard procedure to raise an unrelated exception in when an invalid parameter is passed? I did not encounter any other library function that behaves like this. Especially taking the fact that this is the normal usage in python3. 

How do I supposed to *know* this is not a bug? I can't find similar behavior in other library functions. An IndexError and a traceback *inside the library* does not help.
