3.11a3+ introduced the C version of abspath(), which shows incompletely normalized absolute path (see msg410068):

    >>> os.path.abspath(r'\\spam\\eggs. . .')
    '\\\\spam\\\\eggs. . .'
    >>> os.path.abspath('C:\\spam. . .')
    'C:\\spam. . .'
    >>> os.path.abspath('C:\\nul')
    'C:\\nul'

The design is efficient on startup with getpath_abspath(), but ntpath.abspath()'s result after startup should be more normalized.
