Category	Suggestion	Impact
Learned best practice	Catch specific exception types rather than generic Exception to improve code clarity and maintainability While replacing a bare except: with except Exception: is an improvement, it's still too generic. It's better to catch specific exceptions that might occur during socket shutdown, such as socket.error or OSError. This makes the code more maintainable and helps with debugging by being explicit about what errors are expected and safely ignored. py/selenium/webdriver/common/utils.py [107-110] try: socket_.shutdown(socket.SHUT_RDWR) -except Exception: +except (socket.error, OSError): pass Apply this suggestion Suggestion importance[1-10]: 6	Low
