Thank you, Gary. I wasn't aware of that. And indeed, the log during startup says that weewx uses python 3.7, although I wasn't aware of installing it. I just flashed the whole OS from an image "as is" and never updated python. At least that's what I thought.
So, what does that mean now? I'm confused... Grateful for any clues.
