Interesting. This time using the x86 version of Python worked! No idea why I didn’t run into the earlier issue of https://github.com/oppia/oppia/issues/15299#issuecomment-1097199418.

Following https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-use-manage-multiple-python-versions-on-an-apple-silicon-m1-mac-d69ee6ed0250, reinstalled x86 version of Python 3.7.13 using pyenv alias so that I can try different architectures for the same Python version simultaneously: VERSION_ALIAS="3.7.13_x86" arch -x86_64 pyenv install 3.7.13.
