Most of the "requirements.txt" I come across in the real world do not actually lock down all deps to Python 2.7 compatible versions. I've been able to get most of them running again, but it's a long porcess looking through changelogs to find the last 2.7-compatible version of each dependency.

It took the Node.js ecosystem an embarrassingly long time to arrive at that insight, and I feel like the Python ecosystem/community still isn't there yet (though finally it's easily usable with Poetry).
