Yeah, that could work,
but I'd change %{global python3_pkgversion %1} to
%{define python3_pkgversion %1} in the py3x_* macro definitions so you
only change the definition of %python3_pkgversion within those macros'
scopes.

I tend to agree. Syncing packages with RHEL and CentOS Stream is
difficult and tedious so better to limit the amount of times you have to
do it. Carl's new EPEL 10 proposal will hopefully with this.
