New submission from Irit Katriel <iritkatriel at yahoo.com>:

The "sentinel" default value don't render nicely in the signature:

>>> import traceback
>>> help(traceback.print_exception)
Help on function print_exception in module traceback:

print_exception(exc, /, value=<object object at 0x000002825DF09650>, tb=<object object at 0x000002825DF09650>, limit=None, file=None, chain=True)
