FYI: Guido was opposed to change error handler of stdin and stdout years ago.
This issue proposes to use "backslashreplace" error handler for stdout. This error handler is very different to "surrogateescape" which is related to PEP 383 and used by all OS functions.
I would say, it's not different in the relevant aspect, which is spewing presumably unreadable bytes that may cause other code reading the output to choke. I would think backslashreplace would generally be preferred for these use cases.
