Right now we are using boost only for boost::python. This is a pretty heavy lift just to benefit from the syntactic sugar that boost gives us. Also at the time of writing this, the Windows tests simply cannot run because cmake finds python 3.10 (despite us installing python 3.9), and the FindBoost package of cmake currently available on the github windows runner does not support 3.10 when integrating with boost.
