[issue35216] misleading error message from shutil.copy()

[Stéphane Wirtel]

@vstinner & @serhiy

What do you think about this issue?

For the same POSIX syscall (open) we get 2 different values for the error, 2 on macOS and EISDIR with Linux.

Is a bug in Python or with the compliance of the operating system and the POSIX norm?

Thank you
