There was a problem hiding this comment.
I worry that this makes it sound like an appealing feature, not an unintentional side-effect.
Can we warn instead about the command line having to accept the same options as the Python command line? That's the more useful information for someone who's trying to do this on purpose.
(There are also non-WSL "bash.exe"s out there, so I really don't want to start people thinking they can make Windows users run on Linux by putting bash in the shebang...)
