Describe the bug
The README files state that Rich requires Python 3.8 or later, but this is inconsistent with the actual requirement defined in pyproject.toml.
Current situation:
README.md (line 42): "Rich requires Python 3.8 or later"
README.es.md (line 40): "Rich requiere Python 3.8 o posterior"
pyproject.toml (line 30): python = ">=3.9.0"
CHANGELOG.md (v15.0.0): "Dropped support for Python3.8"
Expected behavior:
All documentation should consistently state Python 3.9+ as the minimum requirement.
Files that need updating:
README.md
README.es.md
- Possibly other localized README files
Context:
This inconsistency was introduced when Python 3.8 support was dropped in version 15.0.0 (April 2026). PR #3716 previously updated the docs from 3.7 to 3.8, but the README text wasn't updated when 3.8 support was later dropped.
