This is tricky because the Python version on Windows is not the same across all currently active distros. I think REP 2000 hasn't been updated since the Windows move to Pixi. Jazzy & Kilted are on Python 3.12.3 (https://github.com/ros2/ros2/blob/jazzy/pixi.toml#L99) and Humble is on 3.10.6 (https://github.com/ros2/ros2/blob/humble/pixi.toml#L103). However, since we already have just a single version not depending on the actual distro used, bumping to the new lower version is fine.
