A similar check is actually already in meld, but meld's minimum
required Python version is (supposed to be) 2.3, since 2.3 is also the
minimum version to run meld's required version of gtk+ (which should
be 2.8).

It suspect that the ternary just slipped in, as these things tend to
do when you're used to newer language features, so this is just a bug
to be fixed.
