I tested and fixed a few things on the core-updates-frozen branch, and
this is how I saw that Python 3.9 was the default.
I don't remember if there was some discussion about this on the bug-guix

There is also the guix-commits mailing list that shows all that happens
in the repository, but it's pretty high volume.
