Following the releasing instructions results in an error when pushing

protected branch hook declined

...

Changes must be made through a Pull Request

Following the instructions as written only works if the releaser bypasses branch protections. They must be an admin or an admin must add them to the list of people allowed to bypass. I added @nikki-t to the bypass list, then cleaned up the list after she successfully pushed. IMO, We should instead document a release process that uses a branch and a PR to make the required changes.

Additionally, the uv-lock pre-commit job will fail on every release because it will try and resolve the new version into the environment lock file before it's been pushed to PyPI.
