Edit: Looking into it further, this behavior was originally for when the Show Completions dropdown wasn't being displayed. In that case, pressing tab would complete only up to the first ambiguous completion.

For example, typing "os.ge" and pressing tab would complete to "os.get", since from there it is ambiguous whether it will be os.get_exec_path, os.get_handle_inheritable, get_terminal_size, etc.

This behavior should stay the same. Although if it is completely unambiguous what the final completion is (say for typing "pri" and pressing tab, which can only autocomplete to "print") then the Show Completions dropdown should disappear.
