 Since splitting by exception type is a very common use case, `subgroup` and
 `split` can take an exception type or tuple of exception types and treat it
-as a shorthand for matching that type: `eg.split(TypeError)`, is equivalent to
-`eg.split(lambda e: isinstance(e, TypeError))`.

+that do not (using the same check as `except` for a match).
