shipped with Python?

the packages are faithful reproductions of upstream packages, deviating from 
those introduces surprises for downstreams

that's simply not true:

$ python3.9 -m venv vvv
$ vvv/bin/python -c 'import _decimal, subprocess; subprocess.check_call(("ldd", 
_decimal.__file__))'
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff429ec000)
        libmpdec.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmpdec.so.2 
(0x00007fcaeae03000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 
(0x00007fcaeade0000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007fcaeabee000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007fcaeaa9f000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fcaeae7f000)
