Old scientific code broke for many people with the introduction of the mac m1. I would think this would be a continuing trend in the future. Staying on old versions simply isn't possible over a long period without keeping the hardware going with it too.

How could the people maintaining Python possibly avoid that? It would be up to Apple to proactively reach out to affected projects, if Apple cares about that.


The way to "avoid" it is to make it easier to upgrade to the latest version of python rather than making it harder.
