PSL's logging module (per discussion 'here' earlier this week) is often
quietly avoided by 'the average Python programmer'. It is unwieldy, yet

Do you bother with exception handling for import statements?
Most of the code I read, both in books and during code review, eschews

Sometimes. There are two cases when I do that:
1. When the module has different names under Python2 and Python3 and
