Then the rest of us who are happy with Python 3 can just get on with life. I'm willing to bet that the demand is not really there and most of this is just kvetching. Should have happened a long time ago. I'm not aware of any good technical reason to still be using Python 2. There is the "I don't have time to upgrade" argument, and I recognize the cost is real. But now we'll see at last if people are willing to stick up for Python 2 more than just figuratively.
