Why is the `scipy` version regressing with advancing `anaconda` packages?
* `anaconda2020` has python 3.7.8 and scipy 1.7.3
* `anaconda2021` has python 3.9.7 but scipy 1.7.1,
* `anaconda2022` (in the Ubuntu 22.04 environment) has python 3.9.15 but scipy 1.5.3!
I was looking for something with scipy >= 1.8 (which brought in `scipy.sparse.lil_array`) or 1.10 which has been released. (`anaconda2023`?)
