    Remove unclear (referring to CI) paragraph from "support python" (#32103)
    
    The paragraph was supposed to clarify things but it makes it
    confusing - it attempted to explain the difference vs "default" and
    supported versions of Python, referring to CI. Unfortunately this
    relation changes over time especially in transition phase like we
    are now where some CI runs on 3.7 (in v2-6-test branch) but some
    CI runs on 3.8 (in main branch).
    
    Removal of the paragraph does not change anything, it actually
    makes the whole chapter consistent and previous paragraph already
    explains the rules.
    
    I believe we should remove it.
