I remain unconvinced, but I'm only one person. You might want to bring this up 
on python-ideas to see if it can get some more support.

But be aware this is going to have much less support that the recent PEP 616 
removeprefix/removesuffix discussion, which went on for weeks or months, and 
involved writing a PEP.

While the Wikipedia page you cite discusses how to convert a string of words 
into snake case, a PEP will require much more detail. Just a few off the top of 
my head: What happens to multiple space: does that become a single underscore, 
or multiple? Is all whitespace converted to underscores, including newlines and 
tabs?  Does it work if the string is already in CamelCase?

I also don't think swapcase or capitalize (plus some others) would be added 
today if they didn't already exist.

To me, this seems like something that belongs on PyPI (like 
https://pypi.org/project/stringcase/), and not in the standard library.
