Yeah. Technically, it does fail to build from source (if you tried to
build it, it would fail at the dnf builddep stage). It's a bit
counterintuitive, but it makes more sense that wasting koji resources to
rebuild something that you know will fail.

Ah, I was not entirely correct. Looking more closely, bottles doesn't
depend on python(abi) at runtime (i.e. it doesn't install any files into
%{python3_sitelib} and/or %{python3_sitearch}) or link to libpython, so
it isn't part of the rebuild to begin with. It just depends on
/usr/bin/python3. That package does some kooky mason stuff instead of
using standard Python packaging tools, and it isn't tied to a specific
python version. It will FTI once the side tag is merged if python-orjson
and python-fvs aren't built, though.

Nah, Python mass rebuilds are a pretty special event :).
Tomáš and Miro gave a good talk about the process at Nest if you're
