Does using print() in Python means I need to understand the Kernel? This is an absurd thought.

That might be an absurd comparison, but we can fix that.

If you were being charged per character, or running down character limits, and printing on printers that were shared and had economic costs for stalled and started print runs, then:

You wouldn’t “need” to understand. The prints would complete regardless. But you might want to. Personal preference.

Which is true of this issue to.
