     The `-t`/`--threads` command line argument requires at least Julia 1.5.
     In older versions you must use the environment variable instead.

     Using `auto` as value of the environment variable [`JULIA_NUM_THREADS`](@ref JULIA_NUM_THREADS) requires at least Julia 1.7.
     In older versions, this value is ignored.
