On macOS, platform.system_alias() now returns macOS and macOS
version, rather than Darwin and Darwin release.

The PR doesn't change the 3rd field of platform.system_alias(): version. It only changes the first 2 fields: system and release. I'm not sure what to do with the 3rd field?

@ronaldoussoren dislike this change:
https://bugs.python.org/issue35516#msg331964

So I abandon this one and I wrote PR #11207 instead to explain why Darwin is not replaced with macOS.
