$ grep "_SUFFIX=" /usr/lib/python3.9/config-3.9-x86_64-cygwin/Makefile
SHLIB_SUFFIX=   .dll
EXT_SUFFIX=     .cpython-39-x86_64-cygwin.dll

Your speculation is quite weird, Normally you don't have no problem 
loading extension module without suffix in python. and paragraph like 
(eg,) is regarded as neither exhaustive or authoritative.

How about look through source code of distutils,setuptools,cpython 
instead of complaining about software without any warranty(according to 
PSF license)?
