Excellent. Now I know what to do in this instance and I understand the

I hesitantly tried this:
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((720,480), pygame.FULLSCREEN |
pygame.DOUBLEBUF)
Hesitantly because I expected the *bitwise or operator* (|) to work like
a toggle, so FULLSCREEN or DOUBLEBUF.
The bitwise OR operator peforms a bitwise OR, i.e. *both* flags get set.
No errors were reported, but how would I check that DOUBLEBUF had been
set? Is there a general rule, such as replace 'set_something' with
'get_something'?
There's documentation. The link Chris gave you for
pygame.display.set_mode() tells you that you get a Surface out of it.
Reaching for the docs for that, this leaps out:
https://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/surface.html#pygame.Surface.get_flags
