Recent experience with releasing an update for Python 3.14 made it clear that listing specific versions in the Trove classifiers is not wise. Not only is a maintenance burden and prone to being out of date with respect to the versions of Python supported by a release: it is also unlikely to be very useful for human searchers anyway. Let's just do away with them and simply list Python 3, not also Python 3.10, etc., for every version supported.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Code Review
This pull request simplifies the classifiers in pyproject.toml by removing the specific Python 3 minor version classifiers (3.10 through 3.14) and keeping only the generic 'Programming Language :: Python :: 3' classifier. There are no review comments, and I have no feedback to provide.
