Details

pydantic is compiled with cython since #71724 [1] and 1.9.1-2 [2], however cython should be a make-dependency instead of a runtime dependency.

Cython is required during runtime for the version information [1].
If cython is not installed, this will lead to wrong data. I have no idea whether this is used by anything, but given the brittle construct that the Python ecosystem is, I don't feel like gambling.

If you think this should be changed, please contact upstream about this and suggest a fix, that doesn't involve importing cython.
Alternatively, just wait for the next major version of pydantic, which (AFAIK) will be a rewrite in Rust and not require cython.
