As a maintainer of the Python CIs, The Night's Watch (*), it's my fault that I didn't skip these tests earlier. Honestly, it's ok to skip a bunch of tests or even remove them if there is no active maintainer.

It's also ok that there is no active maintainer if existing tests continue to pass. asyncio is far from being an exception. Just look at test_nntplib: not maintained for 9 years, https://bugs.python.org/issue40735

This test failure got more attention since it started to fail even more frequently (always?) on Windows 2022.
