Now #18846 has landed,
pathlib.Path._init()does nothing useful and can be removed.A long time ago,
_init()helped preserve the current accessor when creating new paths from an existing path (e.g. by callingq = p.resolve()). But this has only ever worked for a small handful of methods, was never documented, and we currently don't support anything other than_NormalAccessoranyway.More info in the bug report.
