Do we need some wrapper around this so it doesn't blow up on older than Python 3.8?
Why does it blow? Some global variables which won't be used by older versions.
Does it? I don't know, I wasn't clear enough, sorry. What happens on an older python here? Silent ignore is fine.
Usually that's the idea that new features are hardly tried to be backward compatible (yes, I know that the history of Python had a lot of counter examples, but still). In any case, that one was never used before.
You may try yourself, btw:
sys.foobar = "blablabla"
Ah ok, thanks!
