Someone asked whether try/except around list.index is slower than checking with in first, so I timed it on CPython 3.12.
Found: try wins at every size, about 2x once the list is long, because in-then-index scans twice.
Missing: the raise is a fixed cost, 200 to 450 ns here. That is 4x at ten items and 16 percent at a thousand.
So it turns on how often you miss. At ten items try comes out ahead only if you miss less than 8 percent of the time; at a thousand, up to 75.
