The Python version is dictated by the OE version we use for a particular image. OpenPLi 9.x is using Yocto Hardknott (OE 3.3), which uses Python 3.9.
OpenPLi 10 will be based on Yocto Scarthgap (OE 5.0), which uses at the moment Python 3.12.4.
As to what is "essential", if there is no specific reason given for it, ignore what you read, there always people getting a hard-on by every new version, without reason. Every version, old and new, contain fixes for old bugs, and introduces new ones, so that is not a valid reason to upgrade.
Also, Python 3.12 is much bigger than 3.9, so OpenPLi 10 will no longer run on first generation boxes (those with 128MB flash or small maximum flash size). Like a famous footballer once said: "every upside has its downside".

Going to be a while, there are major changes on all sort of levels, which require lots of work, and we don't have enough people available who can work on it.
We're currently still at the stage where not all images build, boot, or run...

You're barking up the wrong tree.
Plugin developers should make sure their plugins are maintained, the problem is most are made once, released on some kind of forum, and abandoned as soon as they are released.
Which is why we don't provide any support for 3rd-party stuff.
You can't tell Micosoft to stop releasing new Windows versions because some application maker can't be bothered to keep its product current?
