I ran the following code in the IntelliJ REPL and was surprised that the output was a single line, not three.

for (num in listOf(1, 2, 3)) println(num)
123

Why isn't each element on its own line?

[nanodeath]

huh. must be a REPL thing

Woah, that's unexpected.
Maybe a bug even

It's not a REPL think, it's a REPL in IntelliJ thing.
The commandline REPL does not behave like that according to OP.

[nanodeath]

that last example is what really baffles me

[Vampire]

Why?

[nanodeath]

that's really just emitting two "\n" chars, isn't it?

[Vampire]

yes
