Probably not mandatory.

/usr/bin/dnf (F40) is a /usr/bin/python3 script.
I suspect that python3.13 (Fedora 41) has been installed, giving the
symlink:
/usr/bin/python3 -> python3.13
but that dnf5 and the python3-libdnf* RPMs have not be installed
(before the failure of system-upgrade).
python3.12 and all its modules is probably still there.
If python3.12 and all its modules is still there, you may try to:
- replace temporarily the /usr/bin/python3 symlink to point to
python3.12
- run "dnf distro-sync" to repair
Note: there is probably duplicates RPMs. dnf4 provides (not dnf5
AFAIK):
dnf remove --duplicates
that may help before distro-sync
