It's something added in to Python 3.10 to help ensure text-based files are treated as UTF-8 for broader cross-platform compatibility. After Python 3.15 encoding="utf-8" will become the default, but leaving it in the code will not cause any issues.
Tested under windows by using set PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING=1 before running, no errors appeared so should all be good.
