next lts release is 4.2, which is another 2 years.
upgrading to 5 requires an update to python 10 - which should be a non-issue, but we do need to do a server stack migration.

Tests pass on Django 4.0.10 with one change to a settings value.

Tests pass on Django 4.1.13, added a single good-idea setting to the django settings file.

And there was nothing relevant at all except an obscure detail in bulk_update_or_create that didn't affect us.

Cool. It's done. That was easy. Deploying to staging.
