Description

Description

We release frequently enough that I believe it's feasible to have upper and lower bounds for all direct dependencies. This will help prevent breakage that sometimes comes with new Numpy versions, new Python versions, or similar. This isn't completely foolproof since there might be problems with transitive dependencies. But I think it would go a long ways towards preventing a lot of very unpleasant incidents.

Research direction

Review the project's direct dependency declarations and existing dependency-related tests. Add upper and lower bounds for every direct dependency, including dependencies affected by new NumPy or Python versions, and update the tests accordingly. Done means the direct dependencies are bounded and the relevant tests pass.
