Python but even worse

Python but even worse is like Python, but it deletes its code if it doesn't raise an error.
In Python, if a wrong command is executed, it will raise an error, but in this esolang, the program will halt silently.
It's invented by User:None1.
Example Programs
Hello World
print("Hello World!")
print(x) # Note that X isn't defined
Cat Program
import sys print(sys.stdin.read()) a = 1 / 0
FizzBuzz
for i in range(1,101):
if i%3==0:
print("Fizz",end="")
if i%5==0:
print("Buzz",end="")
if i%3 and i%5:
print(i,end="")
print()
a = 6128576217835128956872345782136587236578132651872365823164821587623951293846125778123658723148712635231513279 / (0 / 0)
Interpreter in Python
import os,sys
with open(sys.argv[1],"r",encoding="utf-8") as f:
c=f.read()
try:
exec(c)
except:
pass
"""
Indicates that the error at the end is ignored
"""
else:
os.remove(sys.argv[1])
Note that it is also possible to write an interpreter in C/C++ using Python C APIs.
