Not quite yet. I found a more reliable reproducer for Emacs 29, which
could reproduce the bug on my machine with emacs -q.

(progn
  (setq debug-on-error t)
  (shell)
  (insert " i=0; while sleep 0.05; do i=$((i + 1)); echo $i; done")
  (comint-send-input)
  (run-python)
  (switch-to-buffer (generate-new-buffer "tmp"))
  (insert "len\nstr")
  (python-mode))

If it doesn't work bug immediately, try lowering the "0.05" number.

Please consider applying the following patch to fix this.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix python-eldoc affecting unrelated comint processes

* lisp/progmodes/python.el (python-shell-send-string-no-output): Don't
let-bind comint-preoutput-filter-functions globally for all comint
processes.  Modify the behaviour of only the current python
process (bug#53219).
