You keep adding more dependencies to justify ever growing tooling, it seems.
Only you know what it does and how to use it.
What if we just don't want it? I certainly don't care about the guts of
Jupyterlab and Sphinx, I just want to use them. You for some reason want to
maintain a vendored version of them.
Has it ever crossed your mind to ask whether we want to toil on this vendored
version? IMO it is a waste of time and effort.
We might just do a fork of Sage, if you keep preventing reduction in number of
dependencies, you know. Good luck then finding people willing to toil with
these tools of yours, or without.

You perfectly know what I mean. There are ongoing debates on Sage's GitHub repo
coming from various Python packages being obsoleted as projects and distros
drop Python 3.9 and 3.10.
And you are actively preventing people to do work there, e.g. on #36753.
