My recollection is that that special case was added because people
complained about the "noise" from location lines otherwise: there are
too many applications using RAISE to report user errors, for which a
traceback would just be useless noise. I dug around in the archives a
bit but couldn't find the original discussion. But I did find a fairly
recent complaint that it's still too noisy (rather than not noisy
enough):

At the end of that thread we discussed adding a RAISE option to control
the behavior, but nothing's been done about it.
