When the terminal is in application cursor key mode, the cursor keys produce Esc O x and otherwise Esc [ x where x is one of A, B, C, 'D`. Certain programs put the terminal in application cursor key mode; if you kill them with kill -9, or if they crash, then the mode will not be reset.
The cursor keys are different between the two modes:

The key code constants only match the normal mode.
To fix this, I think the easiest way is to reset the cursor key mode to normal:
def readkey() -> str:
"""Get a keypress. If an escaped key is pressed, the full sequence is
read and returned as noted in `_posix_key.py`."""
# Reset the terminal to normal cursor key mode

print("\x1b[?1l", end='')
# It can be quite long when input is from IME.
