It's insufficient and wrong. Looking at python-amara.spec, you do:

%{!?pyver: %define pyver %(%{__python} -c 'import sys;print(sys.version[0:3])')}
%define mainpyver %(%{__python} -c 'import sys;print(sys.version[0:3])')

So, first of all, you depend on %__python, which would be equal to
"BuildRequires: %__python".

Only later you run  %{__python}%{pyver}  although you don't buildrequire
that binary.
