It will save you time by running "# apt-get -d -y upgrade" while you
go eat breakfast. Once all the packages are downloaded, run
"#apt-get upgrade" interactively.
Right now it
seems that for every package I try to upgrade, apt-get wants to REMOVE
gcc yet upgrading all the packages at once does not. I don't understand.
Why should upgrading python, for example, result in apt-get wanting to
remove gcc?

How can I find the package(s) that, once upgraded, will allow the
upgrading of the others *without* trying to remove gcc? None of the
files that gcc depends on are in the upgrade list.
