python@3.10

[luckman212]

After reading Python 3.9.x & 3.10.x #91421 and python@3.10: migrate aliases - PR #87075 I find myself still scratching my head on the best way to have my scripts make use of Python 3.10 today.

Should I ...

• add /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.10/bin to the front of PATH ?
• symlink /usr/local/bin/python310 to /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.10/bin/python3 ?
• use a custom shebang e.g. #!/usr/local/bin/python310 ?
• use virtualenvs for everything?

For now I've settled on the custom shebang + symlink, seems the least prone to causing side-effects but curious what others are doing. I mainly want to use 3.10 to be able to use the new Structural Pattern Matching aka match...case statements.

Prepend the path or use #!/usr/bin/env python3.10
