STYLE Suppressing two instances of pylint W0703 broad-except. 
- [x] partially addresses ability to re-enable pylint checks for `broad-except` from #48855 

34 instances of W0703 were found, this should address 2.    
- Suppressed one warning where there is existing logic to parse returned errors
- Suppressed another warning because downstream constructors could raise any error

Working on appropriate fixes for the rest and the eventual update to `pyproject.toml` -- will submit separate PRs as I go along.
Thanks @roadswitcher looking forward to the follow up :)
