Based on the below positive feedback, I've created a PR here:
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/14464
Only shutil.symlink is currently implemented. Feedback (and possibly
fixes) requested from Windows users.
Thanks to all for their ideas, input and constructive criticism.
Cheers,

If "ln -sf" is not atomic and do remove & symlink, web server or php

I feel this use case is more real world application than
"I don't want exception even when other process creates file
at the same time".
Thank you, Inada-san, your example convinced me. Now I agree that it is
worth to add shutil.symlink (and maybe shutil.link) which supports the
"ln -sf" behavior.
