Description
What is your issue?
https://docs.xarray.dev/en/stable/getting-started-guide/installing.html#minimum-dependency-versions says that we follow NEP-29, and I think our min versions script also does that.
I propose we follow https://scientific-python.org/specs/spec-0000/
In practice, I think this means we mostly drop Python versions earlier.

Review the minimum-dependency-versions section in the installing guide and the repository's minimum versions script, then compare their current policy with SPEC 0. Determine which supported Python versions and references need updating. Done means the documentation and script consistently follow the adopted policy.
