Which docs did you look at specifically that said "and newer"? That
would be a bug.

The readme.txt in the PCbuild directory contains the sentence "Microsoft
Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition is required at the very least". The
wording could be interpreted as "2008 at very least"

That I how I would first read it, not already knowing differently.

instead of "Express Edition at very least".

I did not know that there was anything 'less' than Express Edition. Something like "Building Pythonx.y requires at least the Express Edition of Visual C++ 2008." or "Building Pyx.y requires Visual C++ 2008. Use the free Express Edition or one of its paid upgrades."
