I wonder if we should drop testing for macos-15-intel altogether and only use macos-latest -- AFAIR there were some build / linker issues with cairo when @chopan050 tried that recently. Does the combination of macos-latest with Python 3.13 just play nice(r)?
I think those Cairo issues are more about the macOS cache logic at https://github.com/ManimCommunity/manim/blob/a50d8363e75f748f0c6462267d4829e38fefa41e/.github/workflows/ci.yml#L77
Perhaps it also needs to capture runner.arch so that Intel and ARM caches do not overwrite each other.
OK! macos-latest passes on 4 Pythons. macos-15-intel running on Py3.13 (because it is Required).
