Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

We do not usually make pure style changes in a file unless the code is being 
reviewed and edited. Even then, I focus on changes that make the file easier to 
read and understand, as is necessary to write tests. One example is adding 
missing spaces after commas in function definitions and calls (not a problem in 
this file, as far as I see). Another is to add PEP8 style docstrings to 
document the behavior being tested. That is an issue for this file. The name 
clashes do not bother me: 'file' is no longer a builtin in 3.x; 'sorted' was 
used in the file before the builtin was added (though I might think of 
something different if I were writing today). So lets leave the names alone and 
focus on good docstrings.
