Shall we revisit this functionality? The API doc is built with individual
versions, and for each individual version we depend on other released
versions. This does not seem to be right to me. Also, the functionality is
only in PySpark API doc which does not seem to be consistent as well.

I don't think this is manageable with the current approach (listing
versions in version-dependent doc). Let's say we release 3.4.3 after 3.5.1.
Should we update the versions in 3.5.1 to add 3.4.3 in version switcher?
How about the time we are going to release the new version after releasing
10 versions? What's the criteria of pruning the version?

Unless we have a good answer to these questions, I think it's better to
revert the functionality - it missed various considerations.
