Again, python does not use semantic versioning. 3.12 and 3.13 are different major versions. The deprecation policy is documented and public. https://peps.python.org/pep-0387/.

TIL.

In the doc you linked, they reference "major" and "minor" versions. So they claim to have some concept of version numbers having different significance... Why don't they adhere to semantic versioning if they dress their version numbers like that?

At least Linux just admits their X.Y scheme means nothing.
