I think you misunderstand fairly significantly how this all works together. Python does not use \n "for everything internally". Python is well capable of representing \r separately, and does so if you ask it to. > So I'm curious: Is there a reason this behavior is useful that I'm > missing? I think you are missing how it works in the first place (or else you failed to communicate to me what precise behavior you find puzzling).
