Yes, it seems so. As I commented on my past e-mail, I think we need
a validation logic that will warn if versions are incompatible.
Using the experimental checks you and me did, and checking the minimal
version on Sphinx release notes (*), it seems to be that a good start
point is this:

            ========  ============  ============
            Sphinx    Min Docutils  Max Docutils
            Version   Version       Version
            --------  ------------  ------------
            < 4.0.0   0.17.1        0.17.1
            < 6.0.0   0.17.1        0.18.1
            < 7.0.0   0.18.0        0.18.1
            >= 7.0.0  0.20.0        0.21.2
            ========  ============  ============

Eventually, we may need to blacklist or whitelist other
combinations, but this would require a lot of time.

(*) I asked a LLM AI to check Sphinx release notes and docutils
    versions at the time Sphinx versions were released to aid
    creating such table. I also added your feedback about
    docutils 0.19 and your and my tests with docutils < 0.17.1.

Thanks,
Mauro
