Hmm, that's unfortunate. I would say that the primary advantage to having this CI is that it can test across a matrix of platforms and python versions that aren't available to me or others. I have already identified a few cases where this Python binding would operate in slightly different ways based on both the dimensions listed above (the windows error is certainly one of them).

Anyways. I'll take what I can get. I would really like to be testing on an older version of python (probably 3.7) and the newer version of python. This was going to be the next change. Would we have enough capacity to change this to two runs (two python versions) of ubuntu only?
