In a shell if you enter "python" or "python2", does it start Python? Otherwise where is the Python executable on your system? Was it installed with Gimp?
Natively Python 2.7.16 is installed with OS X. If I type "python --version" that's what I am told. However, I installed a more recent version with HomeBrew, so if I type "python3 --version" it tells me 3.9.1.
Your facade comment makes sense. If I just launch "/applications/GIMP-2.10.app/contents/macos/gimp" from a shell script this is what I see with broken images and stuff:

Using my original script above, I get the same response if I call "/applications/GIMP-2.10.app/contents/mac/os/gimp-console-2.10"
As a test I tried moving my shell script to the same folder where the Gimp executable is stored and it behaves the same way.
