 From the docs - WhatÂ’s New In Python 3.9

You should check for DeprecationWarning in your code

When Python 2.7 was still supported, a lot of functionality in Python 3 
was kept for backward compatibility with Python 2.7. With the end of 
Python 2 support, these backward compatibility layers have been removed, 
or will be removed soon. Most of them emitted a|DeprecationWarning| 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/exceptions.html#DeprecationWarning>warning 
for several years. For example, using|collections.Mapping|instead 
of|collections.abc.Mapping|emits a|DeprecationWarning| 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/exceptions.html#DeprecationWarning>since 
Python 3.3, released in 2012.

Test your application with the|-W| 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-w>|default|command-line 
option to see|DeprecationWarning| 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/exceptions.html#DeprecationWarning>and|PendingDeprecationWarning| 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/exceptions.html#PendingDeprecationWarning>, 
or even with|-W| 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-w>|error|to 
treat them as errors.Warnings Filter 
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/warnings.html#warning-filter>can be 
used to ignore warnings from third-party code.

Maybe they are running their program using 'python -W default'?
