CMD is not going to be subjected to compatibility shims that hide the version number, and I *think* those are not inherited by child processes. So it can use the basic APIs. (It's also likely to be the comparison that most people will check against.)

I agree that using WMI is probably overkill. PyWin32 or a new extension module could handle it for people who have a more urgent need.
