\T might mean the same thing as \t (tab), but I thought it would be

I guess not:

Wonder why when I do print "test\Ttest" vs print "test\ttest" \T just
get printed?
Because "\T" has no special meaning, so is just a two character sequence
like any other in the literal. 'print' just prints the string.
print repr("test\Ttest"), repr("test\ttest")
might be illuminating?
