What I'm wondering is: does the patch make a simple change that is
unlikely to break a lot of dependents? Or could it be more complicated?

For example, changing a piece of documentation will probably not break
any dependents and, if it did, it would probably be easy to fix.

On the other hand, updating the Python interpreter is usually a huge
amount of work because many Python packages break and require upstream
fixes.

Are you able to "guesstimate" the impact of this patch in those terms?
I know very little about Rust so I'm not able to.
