I feel like the semantics of PurePath.suffix 
(https://docs.python.org/3/library/pathlib.html#pathlib.PurePath.suffix) and 
PurePath.stem define this pretty unambiguously.

It does indeed -- it declares the last bit to be the suffix.  So 
correspondingly, .with_stem() should be everything before the last bit, or:

[corrected examples]
p = Path("foo.bar.txt")
p.with_stem("quux")
    "quux.bar.txt"

p.with_stem("baz.quux")
    "baz.quux.bar.txt"
