I checked which versions of Python I had on my computer before running the macOS installer. I had Python 2.7 (for some legacy projects) and 3.7. After the installer, I only had Python 3.9. Are you intentionally uninstalling previous Python versions?

No. That's unexpected. I never tested such a setup before. I am using the python installer directly from python.org though and maybe it looks for old python installations and uninstalls them (especially since python 2.7 reached end of life a few years ago, but I couldn't guess why python 3.7 was uninstalled).

I will look into it.
