The current Python version (3.8) is very old

As of this week, Python 3.13 is stable and Python 3.8 is officially Unsupported.

Problems with getting Python tools to work on Netlify are only going to get worse from here, if the only supported versions on this platform remain 2.7 (unsupported since January 2020) and 3.8—which they are, according to Available software at build time | Netlify Docs.

It’s been over a year since the last official response in this thread (July 2023). Has anything changed regarding whether upgrading the available Python versions is “something prioritised in the short-term”?
