Because Popen is not a module.
Why do you expect it to be a module?
py> type(int)
<class 'type'>
py> type(float)
<class 'type'>
py> type(str)
<class 'type'>
py> class X(object):
... pass
...
py> type(X)
<class 'type'>

Popen is a class, also known as a "type".

os.path is a module, just like os.
Inside the os module, you will find code that looks something like this:
if the operating system is Windows:
import ntpath as path
elif the operating system is Unix:
import posixpath as path
else:
import genericpath as path
So os.path is a module.
