Looks good, but one comment: We'll want to keep this working with some older versions of python too. Sadly I don't expect ATLAS to support 2.9 in most software releases any time soon. I don't know if we can do something to check that it still works with 2.7.

Yup, very much agree! At the moment we don't really have tests and this is just affecting the packaging CI. But once we do have real automated tests then it is very important that we test across all the Python runtimes we say we support. I've caught multiple issues where Python 3.6 and Python 3.8 have differing behavior in lower level stuff.
