Hi Jonathan,
you can open a issue report / feature request on the QGIS Website GitHub 
repository at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Website in order to propose a 
possible improvement.

AFAIK the latest all-in-one OSGeo4W standalone installers that install 
QGIS with the Python support enabled on Windows 7 (64-bit and 32-bit) 
are for QGIS LTR 3.16.16 [1] released on 2022-01-15 and for QGIS 3.18.3 
[2] released on 2021-05-15.

As written by Jürgen, it is possible to install the latest QGIS LTR 3.22 
and QGIS 3.28 versions, with the Python support enabled, using the 
OSGeo4W network installer on Windows 7 64-bit thanks to a special hack 
that lets Python 3.9 work on Windows 7 (on which it wouldn't work by 
default).

Anyway please also consider that Microsoft dropped the Windows 7 support 
some years ago.

Best regards.
