Comment (by ryandesign):
`port select` is for the user to use. Ports shall not depend on it. (Just
think about what would happen if a port were to be installed on one system
(like our buildbot system for example) and that binary were then
distributed to a user who might have a different version of Python
selected.)
The default Python today, per the python 1.0 portgroup, is python310. Per
[https://lists.macports.org/pipermail/macports-
dev/2021-December/044043.html email from Josh] on the list, the default
version of Python shall be updated every January.
