Take a look at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2093589#c1 . Only 
libraries required by controller plugins (e.g. python38-jmespath[1] for the 
json_query filter plugin) need to packaged for python38. Modules are *supposed* 
to use the system python interpreter (/usr/libexec/platform-python).
