It's probably true, IIRC firefox-128esr has pgo broken with python-3.13 but thunderbird doesn't have working PGO so 3.13 is okay here.

But I'd like to keep firefox-esr and thunderbird-esr ebuilds in sync. Next month thunderbird-136 will be released for wider use, and that's going to be based on firefox:rapid ebuild which has python-3.13 support already. So I'd like to wait for that instead of testing tb-128.7.0 again, since stabilization tests are already on the way.
