[Python] pylance reports access attribute warning while it's checked

I have the following code:

try:
None
except Exception as e:
status_code = "error"
# Try to extract status from exception
if hasattr(e, "status_code"):
status_code = str(e.status_code)


PyLance throws the following warning:

Cannot access attribute "status_code" for class "Exception"


I use the "standard" type checking mode.

Why is this warning thrown and how can I remove it without explicitly using a type ignore?
