I guess the HTML version is the most useful for me right now. The
Info version would be if it were up to date. So in the specific case
of Python, I don't really need the pdf.
However, as a general principle, when I do download a .pdf file, I
expect to be able to read it on-screen. That may not be relevant to
the question you're asking, though.
