For me forcing python-wxgtk3.0_3.0.2.0+dfsg-4 is the way I make things work.

Yes.

I just upgraded to 5.0.2+dfsg1-1 last night, and before that played around.

Having a python plugin (in .kicad/scripting/plugins, and specifically
InteractiveHtmlBom[1]) seems to be what triggers this.

So if python is intended to be disabled it's clearly not.
