It absolutely impossible to remove Tkinter IMHO (it has been
part of stdlib since like forever and people expect it there;
its removal would be betrayal on the level of switching = to
:=), I have my doubts about IDLE though. I know, the same
argument applies, but really, does anybody use IDLE for
development for long time, what is its real value for the
community? Although, even this argument is questionable, because
Python has some affinity with the learning, and IDLE is a nice
for first steps nibbling into Python.
Best,
Matěj

is paranoid and the other one is out to get him.
