Answer 1

This is a bug in Python that was caused in the 2.7 release line by https://bugs.python.org/issue27330 and fixed in https://bugs.python.org/issue29082 . It exists in 2.7.13 and is fixed in 2.7.14.

keyboard triggers this bug by using from __future__ import unicode_literals in keyboard._winkeyboard.
