I don't blame the OS guys. Python has been around for 30 years and many distros built a lot of their utilities around Python 2. Getting rid of Python 2 sounds like a Herculean effort that could only start after Python 3 settled down and required libraries were ported over (or replacement libraries written using more modern conventions). I'm glad we seem to be past the big inflection point and hope to put Python 2 behind us. But I can see never changing `python` from Python 2 (just not have one when Python 2 isn't installed).
