If you were to rename the .py to a .pyw it would run without a console

Presumably the “w” stands for “window”. Wouldn’t it be less confusing if it
was the other way round?
Presumably the original pythonw.exe was called that because it's marked
as a windows-app. In win-speak, that means it has a gui. Applications
that are not so-marked are console-apps, and get a console created if
they weren't already started from one. That's where stdin/stdout/stderr
get pointed.
