Although IOError has been merged into OSError since version 3.3, Section 8.5 of the Tutorial still uses it in examples. 

The Python 9.4 version of the tutorial features an example raising an IOError, which is then output as OSError, raising potential confusion unnecessarily.

The Python 3.10 documentation has partially resolved this issue but still retains a third instance of IOError. In this case, the IOError Exception is not actually raised, so the potentially confusing output is not present. Still, it seems preferable to remove it entirely.
