Research direction
Start at unittest.main() and trace how it configures warnings filters relative to filters added before it runs. The issue names no source file or test, so first reproduce the reported override and identify the relevant unittest library code. Done means a more serious pre-existing warnings filter is preserved, with regression coverage for that behavior.
