-ExecutePythonScript vs -run=pythonscript vs ON startup SpawnActorFromObject Discrepancies

I’m going bonkers and could use some help.
I have a script that works (it will add an asset to the world)
-IF I run it from the output log command line in editor
-IF I run it as a startup script for the project
it does not work:
-IF run with ExecutePythonScript
-IF run with -run=pythonscript

The script actually runs using the -run flag BUT the problem is it doesn’t spawn the actor. I get the following warning:

LogEditorScripting: Warning: SpawnActorFromObject. No actor was spawned.

The script is the unreal_setup_turntable.py from the shotgun integration tools.

Any ideas on this would be appreciated… It feels like the editor isn’t fully loading, BUT it does import assets etc and hit all my prints breaks etc.
Thanks in advance!!
Oh and I’ve tried 4.21 and 4.22 for this.
