IMHO clean-ups should stop after beta1. Only the master branch should receive cleanup changes. A clean-up doesn't bring any value to users and is a risk of regression, as Lukasz explained in his message.

It's clearly explained in the devguide: https://devguide.python.org/devcycle/#beta

"After a first beta release is published, no new features are accepted. Only bug fixes can now be committed."
