Most changes to Python require a NEWS entry. Add one using the blurb_it web app or the blurb command-line tool.

If this change has little impact on Python users, wait for a maintainer to apply the skip news label instead.

A news entry would be required for this as this is a user facing change. You can add one with the blurb command-line tool or with blurb it

I do not understand why a PR has been made while the issue is still under discussion. Please do not do so in the future.
