[issue14243] tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile not particularly useful on Windows

The comment you quoted was referring to the NamedTemporaryFile(do_not_delete) flag.

Yes, we'd have to reimplement the UCRT function using the system API. Ultimately, it's not a great compatibility layer if you want to match POSIX semantics and not just the C specification, which is why we do it so often :)
