It most certainly fixes support for Unicode on Windows in terms of filesystems paths, OS function boundaries and the console. Some of these fixes have even taken until 3.6 to get implemented.
As someone who writes cross-platform code, Python 3 was a breath of fresh air after fumbling around in the dark with Python 2.

Like Java and unlike python 3, they at least have the excellent excuse that this was not obvious at the time. And under unix the impedance mismatch has definitely increased. Not a good trade. [1] I wouldn't count them out, but they're definitely on the back foot as bash inclusion shows.
