I found this interesting because I have never run into this before...and I thought that was rare (in relation to how comfortable I am with Python). That said, I personally think this is the right and intuitive outcome.

If we expand out the loop to be manual we would have a script like:

   functions = []
   
   # expanded loop
   i = 1
   functions.append(lambda: print(f"Hello {i}"))
   i = 2
   functions.append(lambda: print(f"Hello {i}"))
   ...
   i = 9
   functions.append(lambda: print(f"Hello {i}"))

Now at this point if we were to:

   print(f"Hello {i}")

What would the expected output be? I would posit that anything other than "Hello 9" would be wrong, both logically and intuitively.

So by extension a loop of effectively "print(f"Hello {i}")" 9 times should just print "Hello 9" 9 times IMO. Anything else is counter-intuitive and definitely surprising.
