The original has served us well. The world is constantly changing. Python should adapt to the (happy) fact that it's being used for systems larger than any of us could imagine 15 years ago. I really wish the BDFL could say the same for CPython itself. This continued insistence of treating python as a teaching language with a teaching implementation is really weird.
