    Trying to test, I can see that this fails iotest 297, because
    `.exitcode()` is `Optional[int]`...

    (I can’t believe how long it took me to figure this out – the message
    “300:465: Unsupported operand types for < ("int" and "None")” made me
    believe that it was 300 that was failing, because `exitcode()` was
    returning `None` for some inconceivable reason.  I couldn’t
    understand
    why my usual test setup failed on every run, but I couldn’t get
    300 to
    fail manually...  Until I noticed that the message came below the
    “297”
    line, not the “300” line...)


Oops. Is there anything we can do to improve the visual clarity there?

You mean, like, separating iotests from the Python linting tests? :)

I think until then I’ll just need to pay more attention.
