+# The Python version matters:
+#   - pymongo 4.19 requires Python >= 3.11, so the base image could not stay
+#     on 3.10 once the requirements were pinned.
+#   - 3.14 is a stable release (first released 2025-10-07, in its bugfix
+#     phase until 2030-10), so the image is not carrying the CVEs fixed in
+#     3.11, 3.12 and 3.13.
+#   - The patch version is pinned rather than the floating `3.14-slim` tag so
+#     a rebuild is reproducible and does not silently pick up a base image
+#     change.
