For some empirical data, I went through some popular packages that follow this pattern and searched for usage of their base exception classes:

Requests: https://github.com/search?q=except+requests.RequestException&type=Code

PyYaml: https://github.com/search?q=except+yaml.YAMLError&type=Code

Jinja2: https://github.com/search?q=%22except+jinja2.TemplateError%22&type=Code

https://github.com/search?q=%22except+jinja2.exceptions.TemplateError%22&type=Code

https://github.com/search?q=%22except+TemplateError%22&type=Code
