Even shorter reproducer:

-----------------------------
try:
    aab
except BaseException as E:
    E.with_traceback(None)
    raise ZeroDivisionError()
-----------------------------

    bpo-38530: Offer suggestions on NameError (GH-25397)

    When printing NameError raised by the interpreter, PyErr_Display
    will offer suggestions of simmilar variable names in the function that the exception
    was raised from:

        >>> schwarzschild_black_hole = None
        >>> schwarschild_black_hole
        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
        NameError: name 'schwarschild_black_hole' is not defined. Did you mean: schwarzschild_black_hole?
