Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Anatoly, we are not going to change the default buffering to the most 
inefficient possible to meet your expectation -- especially when there is a 
simple option to give you what you want. Unix/C and hence windows has two 
output streams because people often want the two streams to go to different 
places. Anyone who knows and uses the magic incantation '2>&1' to mix them 
together had better know (or learn) what this really means and what the options 
are. This issue has nothing in particular to do with Python.
