For example, if I'm reading Repology correctly, Debian Stable has Python 3.7 [1] and GCC 8 [2] which has at least some C17 support, C++17 support, and definitely C++14 support [3]. Similarly to the GDAL and PROJ issue where I don't think it is necessary to have GRASS C89/C++98 compliant when you need C++11 for GDAL anyway. Here, I think that either the C and C++ versions are unnecessary low or the Python version is too high if Debian Stable is a representative sample.
