All that Guido is proposing to do is to rationalize development effort

something more coercive, but Python developers aren't going to stand
for that, and Guido himself is the first line of defense.  He's
already said that's not going to happen, not now (and IIUC probably
never).

The change has been decreed, so it will be.

It's all right, because (as Guido suggests in the decree) we can now take the discussion to how to make it good for all involved. The Python community will likely succeed at that.

It is a tautology that only experience will reveal the truth, at least so in our endeavour.

Signing off this thread, yours truly,
