Changes
ipaddress.IPv4Address was not used as fallback because it is 5 times slower than regex, and its behavior is inconsistent across Python versions 3.8 and 3.9 (w.r.t. recognition of leading zeroes). For example, on Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye, the latest Python version is 3.9.2-3, which allows leading zeroes. To update to the latest patch version of Python 3.9, one has to manually install from source.
