a) the PEP makes no point about platform-independence. it is a pure Windows thing, and has no stated objective to being platform-independent. So loss of platform-independence may not be deliberate, but is certainly acceptable. b) platform-independence is not lost as the launcher would continue to support /usr/bin-based paths. So platform-independence would be an opt-in feature, at the choice of script authors.
