Please no. There's a long tail of unmaintained but working libraries. Throwing away compatibility is not worth it.

  Don't think of it as throwing away compatibility, it's just adding incompatibility. ;)

  You could always have a compat API that’s different, or puts in “legacy” mode.

    In order for such an API to work, you'd have to bundle the vast majority of the existing Python runtime.

  You'd think people would learn from the 2to3 debacle.
