Maybe what I have in mind as the env setup is different but 1) lower envs might not experience the load or edge cases as prod 2) lower envs are supposed to be as similar as possible to prod. Is it a good idea to test things with Python 3.11 and run it in prod using a different Python version? It might even force you to use different versions of a lib for each env which means no confidence for releases to prod based on lower env tests (one way would be to have two lower envs. One for next Python version and another for current one as in prod. But #1 is my main issue.)
