Unclear what python version is required

Describe the bug
Documentation error: It is unclear what Python version is required. setup.py indicates >= 3.0. READNE.md sais 3.x. Success stories seems to indicate that 3.8+ works. But my experience is that 3.9 is required, due to the usage of venv option "-upgrade-deps", which was introduced in 3.9
To Reproduce
Run make setup with python < 3.9
Expected behavior
README.md and setup.py could indicate a more precise python version requirement.
Logs
Please run bugreport.sh and attach bugreport.zip.
Additional context
This is of course only a small inconvenience, but it can take som time to figure out. Thanks for your great work :)
Python version required for development (running make commands, etc) is more strict than what is required for using a pip installed package. Pip installed package requires 3.x. Development is 3.9+.
make setup
now checks the version of python vs whats required for development.
