This would put the burden of updating the numbers on the release manager, who bumps the CPython version. I doubt they'll want that.

Can you find a way to do this with less maintenance overhead?

IMO it shouldn’t fall on the release manager, since the file won’t have changed anyway. In my mind I think it should just be done as part of whatever pr that modifies the script in a given version.

Using the version of the python running it will be misleading.

Ah. Could you document that expectation; perhaps put the command to do it in a comment?

I can do that.
