Problem
We backported a change to v1.5 that used the walrus operator, which was introduces in py38. While our goal is to drop support for py37 going forward, this is a small change that would keep v1.5 py37 compatible for a bit longer.
Solution
Replace the walrus operator with an equivalent two lines.
