Even if this does not improve performance significantly, this is easier to read 👍

packaging 26.1 adds a new
keyparameter on their filter methods, this allows a packaging specifier to directly filter candidate objects without needing to do any pre-work or construct a set of versions, which can be a hot spot of working during long resolutions.I'm not sure what the real world performance impact will be, because constructing and retrieving the hash of a version also got a lot faster in 26.1: pypa/packaging#1156 (comment), but either way it's work we no longer needed to be doing.
