    We went back to look at why this happened and found https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/1917 which we reported a long time ago. It seems that when py37-MarkupSafe became py37-markupsafe the FreeBSD package tool would mark the new package as manually installed (which it wasn't) so it sticked around ever since then for some people.
