[issue35077] Make TypeError message less ambiguous

You're welcome. I filed against 3.5 because that's what I have in our env at the moment and I couldn't test and thus assert the issue in later versions. 

Happy to see the problem addressed more generally.

The abstraction of the problem is the ambiguity in English between nouns used as adjectives and their groupings: (noun phrase) versus (noun as adjective)(noun). Using "X of Y" rather than (XY) or (X)(Y) resolves the ambiguity.
