I get it, but one can "just use Artix" or Arch or one of the other rolling distros where everything is always new. The only reason for being wedded to Ubuntu IS long term compatibility and that feeling that Ubuntu will fix security bugs but otherwise keep things "old".

> The only reason for being wedded to Ubuntu The other reason is because it's the only approved distribution your company's IT department allows. Or the only distro your company's mandatory "security" software runs on. Etc. It's dysfunctional, but "enterprise" tends to mean "ancient 'stable' distribution if Linux is allowed at all" which in turn means "system python isn't useful, even if using it wouldn't break the system".
