I think technically you contributed this build change and not me nor the rest of us though?

Yupp, I've done python/release-tools#346 with @zooba's help. Don't think we can / do link to release-tools here?

Thus, I've re-used the wording of #143068 blurb.

Maybe just link to https://docs.python.org/3.15/whatsnew/3.15.html#optimizations?

The JIT is already included in 3.14 and off per default (--experimental-jit-off) and the same setting is used for 3.15.
So I am unsure about adding the link, especially using now as this might suggest that it was not the case earlier?

Sorry, I mixed up two unrelated things there! Let's try again:

Shall we add a new entry in the release highlights about using the tail-calling interpreter for Windows 64-bit binaries?

I think an entry would fit nicely there 👍
