One likely difference is that testäöü should be a legitimate (unicode)
Python name, but testõ÷³ probably isn't, because the division sign
isn't alphanumeric.

Also, there is a chance that testäöü was already in the appropriate
normalized form, but testõ÷³ probably isn't, because of the
superscript.

Whether either of these *should* matter in this case, I couldn't tell
from your post.
