Also, can we loosen the restriction on versions 2.X.X of google-api-core? https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-python-client/blob/main/setup.py#L45 The requirements were introduced here: https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-python-client/pull/1715

Hi @amourVantage,

I agree that we need to drop support for google-api-core 1.x as it is confusing for both users and maintainers to support 2 major versions of a dependency. This is on our roadmap. We will make this change across all Cloud Client Libraries at the same time.
