Any code that correctly distinguishes between 3.9 and 3.10 would also handle 3.14 and 3.141

Well they better can distinguish between 3.141 and 3.oom_killer invoked.

no. No it wouldn't. It would break 99.9999% of python interpreter version checks cuz we are all following the exact same patterns.

... the next day you'd be here saying that was a really bad idea.

Luckily people smarter than us already decided that was not worth pursuing. And we are better off for those folks with foresight instead of 100% clarity in hindsight.
