My PR tests are failing seemingly due to some bug in enum.rst Which might be caused by https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/22392 (that's the superficial cause, it might not be the root cause).
As far as I can tell, it is not the root cause. I (and others) have also had issues with ssl/socket randomly failing tests.
Why are we merging PRs that fail the CI tests?
Because I could not find any error in the documentation that would cause the problem (the first three cases succeeded, using the same construct).
Why is that even allowed?
Because the tests are not perfect.
I did post a message to python-dev to see if anybody had any idea on why that particular test was failing, but there were no replies.
