The OpenSSL requirement* (>= 1.1.1b) requires a lot newer distro
versions than the Python 3 requirement (>= 3.3).

OpenSSL 1.1.1b was released on 2019-02-26:
https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-announce/2019-February/000147.html

Python 3.3.0 was released on 2012-09-29:
https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-330/

On Debian, for example, Jessie / 8 / oldoldoldstable has Python 3.4, but
you need Buster / 10 / stable to get OpenSSL 1.1.1.

* It's not a firm requirement, since we can still build on old OpenSSL
  with --disable-nts AFAIK.
