Short version sounds like: Python is a legacy language. We're not porting our legacy code and we're not starting new projects in Python. I wonder: 1. Would this have changed if there was a Python 2.8 with some new features (but still a GIL) that ran most 2.7 code? 2. Is your experience representative, i.e. are teams just not starting new projects in any version of Python, even though so many did in the last decade?
