SSL is deprecated, although the package is still named SSL and many companies still call their certs SSL certificates. It's useful to surface this so people learning about security are aware of the shift, but comfortable using the SSL package. Also Python developers should become aware of the normal install mechanism, which takes advantage of the latest version. This encourages better security practices.

We know SSL is deprecated in favor of TLS. Although the package is still named SSL and many companies still call their certs SSL certificates, I think it's useful to surface this so people learning about security are aware of the shift, not confused by "SSL", and comfortable using the SSL package.
Also Python developers should become aware of the normal pip install mechanism, which takes advantage of the latest version and encourages better security practices.
All this is subtle...but for the student in the far corner of the world learning Python and trying to learn from the information in front of them...perhaps this can help a tiny bit.
