Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

In the case at issue, the file name is the same (contrary to the error
message). The two representations of the *path* are different, but
equivalent. There is no ambiguity: the file should be put in directory
'test' and named 'test2.txt'. So I think zipfile should do what 7zip
does and do just that.

An actual filename difference might be argued differently.
