PyEnv BUILD FAILED installing past versions of Python on MacOS

When trying to install past versions of Python using PyEnv, for example Python 3.6.14, I run into a build failed error. The command I am using is

$ pyenv install 3.6.14

The error I receive is

I am able to download newer versions with no trouble, including versions of Python 3.8 and onward. I can download select versions of Python 3.7, one version of Python 3.6, and none earlier than that. Here are the versions I've been able to download:

3.10.5 3.10.6 3.6.15 3.7.12 3.7.13 3.8.13 3.9.12 3.9.13 3.9.5

For some context, I am a graduate student learning about data engineering and foresee using older versions of Python in a virtual environment. I am aware that I could do something similar in Docker, but am interested in doing this via virtual environment.

My environment/framework versions are

• MacOS Monterey 12.5.1
• pyenv 2.3.4
• Homebrew 3.5.10
• Xcode 13.3.1
• Global Python is Python 3.9.12
• Because it is part of the error, I also feel it is necessary to say I have Apple clang version 13.1.6

I've read similar posts, but none worked. I've tried uninstalling and installing Xcode and Homebrew, but no dice. Same with trying --patchor installing other Homebrew libraries such as brew install readline xz and brew install openssl. I am open to other ways to install previous versions of Python, but would prefer to operate through PyEnv.
