importlib-metadata requirements is too strict

The importlib-metadata requirements in setup.py is too strict:
install_requires=[
    'importlib-metadata~=4.12; python_version < "3.10"',


I suggest to change it to read:
install_requires=[
    'importlib-metadata>=4.12; python_version < "3.10"',


Simply replacing ~= by >=.
I believe there is no reason to be so strict.  The current version of importlib-metadata is 6.0.0: https://pypi.org/project/importlib-metadata/
