Description

Documentation

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/appendix.html#interactive-mode

The second paragraph starts with:

On Windows, or Unix-like systems with curses support, a new interactive shell is used by default since Python 3.13.

No systems need "curses support" to run the REPL since GH-136758.

Explicit is better than implicit, but let's not talk curses this time.
