This means that multiple :keyword:`!except*` clauses can execute,

Each clause executes at most once and handles an exception group

+------------------------------------
Any remaining exceptions that were not handled by any :keyword:`!except*`
clause are re-raised at the end, combined into an exception group along with
all exceptions that were raised from within :keyword:`!except*` clauses.
If the raised exception is not an exception group and its type matches
one of the :keyword:`!except*` clauses, it is caught and wrapped by an
exception group with an empty message string. ::

... raise BlockingIOError
... except* BlockingIOError as e:

An :keyword:`!except*` clause must have a matching type,
and this type cannot be a subclass of :exc:`BaseExceptionGroup`.
It is not possible to mix :keyword:`except` and :keyword:`!except*`
