I can't reproduce the above result in either Linux or Windows. The
results should only be different for an empty path string, since
Path('') is the same as Path('.'). The results should be the same for
Path(" "), depending on whether a directory named " " exists (normally
not allowed in Windows, but Linux allows it).


I need to confirm that it was my fault and for non-empty strings (`" "` or `"
"`), both `os.path.isdir(...)` and `Path(...).is_dir()` produce the same
results.So sorry for the noise.

Concerning the case with empty path string, I will open a ticket at the bug
tracker (but for some reason it is blocked in my country :(
https://isitblockedinrussia.com/?host=https%3A%2F%2Fbugs.python.org%2F).

For me, this now returns 'No, https://bugs.python.org is probably not blocked in Russia. Yet.'.

Obviously
these are not equivalent forms, so either this should be noted in the
documentation or corrected in the code.
