Ok, I see this a feature. :)
As for why it is desirable.
A part of a path is still a path, and matching for something must mean that you
are matching a partial path.
Even if you use '*.py' as the pattern this would still make sense as a path:
path = pl.Path("foo/bar")
print(path.match("bar"))
print(path.match(str(pl.Path("bar"))))
print(path.match(str(pl.Path("*"))))
The idea is that *anything* that can match a path _is_ a sub-path by
definition, otherwise it can't be matched. So allowing path is just as natural
as far as I see it.
As for the above argumentation I think this also holds for Path.glob and
Path.rglob where pattern could just as well be a Path.
