I agree, it's unreasonable to expect devs to know the whole standard library. The VSCode extension Pylance does give a warning when this happens. I thought linters might also check this. The one I use doesn't, maybe the issue[0] I just created will lead to it being implemented.

One of the changes in Python 3.13 is that it'll warn you when that is the likely cause of breakage and explain how to fix it: https://docs.python.org/3.13/whatsnew/3.13.html#improved-err...

But the problem remains, because these warnings - whether they come from linters or Python itself - can only warn you about existing stdlib modules. I'm not aware of any way to guard against conflicts with any future new stdlib modules being added.
