Question about exausted iterators

Is there a good reason why when you try to take an element from an
already exausted iterator, it throws StopIteration instead of some other
exception ? I've lost quite some times already because I was using a lot
of iterators and I forgot that that specific function parameter was one.
Exemple :
>>> def f(i):
... print list(i)
... print list(i)
...
>>> f(iter(range(2)))
[0, 1]
[]
>>>
This is using Python 2.4.2
