In this paragraph, the using windows doc page dynamically adjusts the version to the one that's being looked at by the user, however the statement is no longer true for python 3.9 and above as support for vista/7 was dropped
As specified in PEP-11, a Python release only supports a Windows
platform while Microsoft considers the platform under extended
support. This means that Python |version| supports Windows Vista
and newer. If you require Windows XP support then please install
Python 3.4.
