Please forget about the patches. My late-night logic had a major flow.

The nature of the issue is that all dependent packages have to be
EAPI=5. Therefore, we effectively need to make whole python-r1 require
EAPI=5.

If nobody objects, I'll:

a) add a verbose warning when python-r1 is used with EAPI=4,

b) bump all packages to EAPI=5 (the stable ones preferably with a ping
to the arch team),

c) after a few days, replacing the warning with a fatal error.
