Iirc, it mostly impact C modules in terms of the guarantees that are offered / not offered with GIL / NOGIL.

Yeah, but the ecosystem of C modules is what makes Python so great.

There is a competing c interface that numpy and a few other projects are adopting that allows for no gil. Last time this came up I thought the rust implementation used that one.
