Yes this seems like a maassive problem with a band-aid solution. Like the fact that I might try to change my system Python version to get my Python project working, and that could cause side-effects in completely un-related areas - like maybe my C++ build system is now broken - just seems like an absolutely absurd state of affairs. It seems crazy to me that the precise Python version isn't defined in the Python file itself, and the interpreter is responsible for sorting out compatibility issues.
