I can reproduce it with Emacs 28.1, 28.2 and 29.0.50.

However, it seems that this isn't supported by python.el. It uses
internal Tramp functions from tramp-sh.el, so it is unlikely it will run
over an sshfs connection.

Perhaps an error message from python.el is needed, saying "Remote
connection `sshfs' isn't supported for processes". or alike.

Best regards, Michael.
