great point! Though what about the default windows APIs for 'calling out to shell'. Like using `subprocess.run(...)` in Python. My suspicion is that works like cmd.exe?

edit: answered myself. Seems like subprocess.run works like PowerShell, unless you pass in 'shell=True', then it passes it directly to CMD.exe. And I'm guessing that's what Cursor is doing.
