I did something like that on 15.3 with python-3.9, so I could build QGIS, it worked fine (eventually).
qgis is in Leap 15.4, and it is upgraded to the maximum. Which is not very far, unfortunately... The version is 3.18.3, the last version supporting python 3.6.
IIRC, 3.18.x is EOL, hence the adventure with python-3.9 on 15.3 :)
? You can also work with software that is not supported anymore by upstream. It does not magically break, it does not have a killswitch implemented to turn off when it goes EOL. Fixes for bugs can be backported, no problem. If you need always the latest+greatest, then you will have no joy with Leap 15.[34] anyway. So your answer does not make any sense whatsoever.
Might look at flatpak at some point, QGIS is an interesting use-case for it. It has quite a few dependencies, some of them used outside of it (like GDAL), can use datasets from external databases (postgresql/postgis), and I am not sure how that works with the whole sandboxing thing etc.
