1) You wrote: "OUR USES of NumPy/SciPy are ... dating back by about a decade". 2) I replied that it's not true, Voronoi's USE in Sage in much more recent. 3) You are now trying to invalidate what I wrote by telling us about the history of Voronoi in SciPy. How is it relevant to 1) and 2) ? See, what you wrote is FACTUALLY INCORRECT. Please admit it Yes, I confess that "dating back" was not worded clearly enough. I'm sorry that I offended you with that. I should have said "our uses of NumPy/SciPy are of NumPy/SciPy features that date back by about a decade". Which is exactly the point I was making: When we update NumPy/SciPy, it is typically NOT because of the needs of the Sage library for new features but because we want to stay on supported versions, for picking up portability fixes, etc., and for the convenience of the maintainers of downstream packaging of Sage in Linux distributions. The only exception that I'm aware of being the high-performance optimization solver HiGHS, see https://github.com/sagemath/sage/wiki/Sage-10.0-Release-Tour#linear-programming-and-extensions ).
