It seems that you indeed are trying to solve a problem you encountered.
Can you please explain what the problem is?

ISTM that the current definition doesn't really cause problems, despite
potentially being fuzzy. People that start sys.executable typically
*do* get a Python interpreter - in an embedded interpreter, they just
don't want to start a new interpreter, as that couldn't work, anyway.
