They all have drawbacks, but they also reduce the case for needing to speed up CPython.

Pypy does provide faster pure Python. Its a compatible implementation with JIT.

The newest version of python that PyPy supports is 3.12. CPython is on 3.15.

And from what I understand there are limitations with using libraries that use the CPython API to interface with native code.

Onlything is a lot of cextensions are super slow there. that is only bottleneck left which could be solved with resources that those guys spent on experimental jit.
