My suspicion about posix=False was wrong.
>>> shlex.split(''' 1 "'a' 'b'" ''', posix=False)
['1', '"\'a\' \'b\'"'] # len(...[1]) = 9
>>> shlex.split(''' 1 '"a" "b"' ''')
['1', '"a" "b"'] # len = 7
f:\dev\3x>py -c "import sys; print(sys.argv)" 1 "'a' 'b'"
['-c', '1', "'a' 'b'"] # Matches 'True'
>>> shlex.split(''' 1 '"a" "b"' ''', posix=False)
['1', '\'"a" "b"\'']
>>> shlex.split(''' 1 '"a" "b"' ''')
['1', '"a" "b"'] # Similar difference
f:\dev\3x>py -c "import sys; print(sys.argv)" 1 '"a" "b"'
['-c', '1', "'a", "b'"] # crazy inversion and 3 args, matches neither
