The latest version of sphinx-rtd-theme (1.1.1) is incompatible with Sphinx 6: the navigation sidebar depends on jQuery. https://blog.readthedocs.com/sphinx6-upgrade/

Maintenance on sphinx-rtd-theme appears to be quite slow: there was over a year gap between 1.0 and 1.1.

The wider Python community seem to have moved to other Sphinx themes. In particular, furo, by one of the PyPA folks, appears to have become quite popular, has dark theme support, and uses very little JavaScript.

I don't think this matters as much as I expect most docs to be migrated over next year anyway.

We'd still have API docs though?
