FWIW I don’t have a strong feeling on whether we should add it or not. I haven’t been a beginner in a long time and I am not very good at putting myself in their shoes. I legitimately don’t know what would be more or less confusing here, possible weird state (with or without a warning that they might be getting into weird state territory) or an error message telling them to use a real shell and not the Python REPL.
