To reiterate what Ralf said, the possibility of Python going to a faster
cadence was one of the things on our mind when drafting NEP 29 (see
https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0029-deprecation_policy.html#n-minor-versions-of-python
for why did not go with a fixed number of versions) because the reality of

for Unicode support).

I created https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/21601 to update NEP29 to
address PEP602.
I'm not sure what the procedure for updating the NEP is. What I wrote may
