I can't reproduce this on Linux machine with Python 3.7 and 3.8. Assigning the 
open file object shouldn't really make a difference unless you are passing the 
same file object that was read to initialize a different configparser object.

cat review-stats.cfg
[global]
a = b

python3.7
Python 3.7.0 (default, Jun 28 2018, 00:00:00) 
[GCC 4.8.4] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import configparser
>>> config = configparser.ConfigParser()
>>> config.read_file(open('review-stats.cfg'))
>>> config.sections()
['global']
>>> config2 = configparser.ConfigParser()
>>> f = open('review-stats.cfg')
>>> f
<_io.TextIOWrapper name='review-stats.cfg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'>
>>> config2.read_file(f)
>>> config2.sections()
['global']
