Comment:

 It appears that when determining the slug (when not specifically provided)
 in `wp_insert_term()`, if there is a term with the same name on any level,
 the slug of that term is used. This can be clearly seen at
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/28733 "[28733]"] - lines
 `2441:2442`. The issue can be resolved if a term with the same name is
 considered only when it is on the current term level. Attached a patch for
 that.
