> @ngoldbaum mind taking a peek? Currently I've got my plate full trying to get Python 3.14 support working in packages. We'll probably want to start looking at 3.15 eventually,...

I think we'd have to come up with a new function that has a different return type. A few versions later, we could deprecate `eig` and `eigvals` and point people...

IMO this is worth doing. Having consistent output types is also better for JITs like numba or AoT compilers. Maybe it could be done by adding a new keyword argument...

> With a downstream library maintainer hat on, I don't see how a keyword helps. Downstream, we'll need to first add a keyword (with a version check), then silence the...

EDIT Dec 12: This is based on invalid assumptions, see below. We chatted about this at the last community meeting today and noticed a few cases on github search where...
