is it normal to have some high-level applications which can not coexist ?

perhaps this is not a bug? - im not certain - the situation is not common

$ sudo pacman -Sy spyder pcbdraw
....
warning: removing 'python-mistune' from target list because it conflicts with 'python-mistune1'
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: unable to satisfy dependency 'python-mistune>=2' required by jupyter-nbconvert

$ pacman -Si python-mistune{,1} | grep Conflicts
Conflicts With : None
Conflicts With : python-mistune

or if those packages were already install, someone else reported that pacman could not upgrade the system

$ sudo pacman -Su

:: python-mistune and python-mistune1 are in conflict. Remove python-mistune1? [y/N] y

@bill-auger: Thanks for the ticket.

The situation is a bit... well.. problematic due to how pcbdraw pins an older python-mistune. I have opened an upstream ticket for this as there hasn't been any movement from its maintainer either so far:
https://github.com/yaqwsx/PcbDraw/issues/103

By now pcbdraw is the last application requiring python-mistune1. If you want to make this go away, you could help upstream by providing a fix that introduces a newer version of mistune (>= 2.0.0) and eases the version constraint.

ok so generally, that situation is to be avoided, and is bug-worthy if people stumble on it?

i generally tell people, that anytime `pacman -Syu` gives an error, that is almost always a bug, worth reporting

pcbdraw was recently updated to version 1, in which mistune was updated. However, the new pcbdraw comes with added dependencies currently not in the repos, although I packaged some of them in the aur
Comment by Phillip Samuel (pintert3) - Sunday, 25 September 2022, 20:26 GMT
the particular new dependencies are python-engineering-notation and python-svgpathtools
