I shall be flippant in the hope of being humorous, yet with an element of
possible truth:

Perhaps no-one has bothered to update that bit of code in the last decade and
a half?

Did you mean subprocess.Popen? Worth noting that the API for subprocess
changes from call* in earlier versions to run in later. Somewhat annoying for
compatibility across many Python versions.
