In my opinion, `arcgis-desktop` tag should be. Because the error is related arcgis desktop. ArcGIS 10.2.2 uses Python 2.7.5 and ArcGIS 10.7 uses Python 1.7.16

It does work in ArcGIS Pro based python 3.6.9 (64 bit) anaconda, It is not working at all in 2.7.5 and 2.7.16 which desktop based installation and it is 32 bit.
