It's the most likely way to suppress interactive i/o generally, which is
why it should normally be used for inferior interpreters and things like
VC, apart from the reasons in the manual to avoid PTYs.

It's certainly odd behaviour, but as you're dropping python.el for
python-mode.el, you needn't worry about it. Amongst other things,
python-mode.el doesn't have the features that require results from the
sub-process.
