New submission from Brett Cannon:

It's always bugged me that the posix module changes its name based on what OS 
you're running under. I think it would be better to name the module _os as that 
it's consistent. We can alias the name to posix/nt for backwards compatibility 
(and even do this in importlib since it uses the module, so no worries of 
missing the aliasing). It also helps reinforce the note at the top of the posix 
module that it shouldn't be imported directly.
