The print call there is from python 2. I can do some editing to add in the brackets in a bit

I was a little cheeky there. But in all seriousness python 2 is End-of-Life and no one should use it anymore.

Come on, Python 2 only has 16 critical vulnerabilities. Live dangerously 🙃.

Shoutouts to all people out there maintaining legacy code 🫣

Although "critical" by CVE standards could just mean ReDoS for some non user facing code and which clearly is not a security issue but still of course requires urgent dependabot warnings on some parent package which doesn't even use the not at all vulnerable code anyway...
