Lots of older python scripts made use of TkInter for their GUI programming, which has always been notoriously broken on macs. Those which switched to wxPython worked better, but still had significant issues unless designed or modified to work on both platforms. Poser Python on Windows also received updates that did not propagate to mac Poser Python until Poser 12, where both platforms now run Python 3.7.9 and wxPython 4.1 (Phoenix).

They're a lot closer in their codebase, now, but there are still gotchas in the GUI implementations for each OS. Mostly, things can work with tweaking.
