Sure! I can add SimpleNamespace.

The C function returns four elements:

 * environment var that is used to look up the path to a CA cert file
 * path to a CA cert file
 * environment var that is used to look up the path to a CA cert directory
 * path to a CA cert directory

SSLContext.set_default_verify_paths() is unable to return information if it was able to load any CA certs. With get_default_verify_paths() a developer is able to debug which file or directory is used by OpenSSL. The code is based on OpenSSL's X509_STORE_set_default_paths(). If you want to read up on it:
