Regarding Qiskit Metal, when we are using the latest commit, the conda environment has python 3.10. When we add the dependencies for pyaedt i.e. PythonNet and PyVista, then generate a new conda env, the environment is python 3.9. This makes us believe PythonNet and PyVista have some code which is not python 3.10 compatible. This is just sharing of information; however, it would be ideal to not limit python version.

We noticed pyaedt is not part of conda-forge. If we want to use that package, we would need to manually pip install.
