Additional Information

Referencing another project from the Python window is similar to referencing a project from IDLE, and keeping the shell window open. Both ArcGIS Pro and the shell have a reference to the opened project in memory and deleting the variable reference does not remove the opened project from memory, it simply deletes the references to it. The Python window was intended to reference the current project.
