I don't think there is a conflict here and I don't really have an opinion as I don't use Windows regularly. From a bit of web research, it looks like the closest thing to Windows jump lists on macOS are control-clicking on an app icon (like IDLE.app) in the dock which then may show some recent files used with the app. As you note, IDLE's recent file list is also available, a good cross-platform choice.
