Why doesn't Python go into more depth about errors?

I'm curious as to why Python doesn't list deeper errors? I am getting this error right now.

firms[i]['predmet_podnikania']=firms[i]['predmet_podnikania'][:-1]+[firms[i]['predmet_podnikania'][-1]+line]
IndexError: list index out of range

Ok, I understand that I am trying to access some list with a maximum index than the maximum one. But why doesn't Python say which one?

It could be: firms[i]

orfirms[i]['predmet_podnikania'][-1]

This will save you a lot of time.

This exception is thrown in the class list

. There is no way to get the variable name ( firms

) inside methods list

so that the exception contains a generic message.
