I blame a lack of tools. JS devs have been transpiling for years now and it works. Python should have released a conversion tool that could automatically convert most stuff and identify the stuff it couldn't convert. This kind of directed upgrade would have made the process much easier for developers to actually accomplish.

I'm confused, because isn't that exactly what they did? What was wrong with 2to3? https://docs.python.org/3/library/2to3.html https://docs.python.org/3/library/2to3.html

  It didn't work well at all in my experience. Given how much code was thrown out rather than ported, I'm guessing that I'm not alone.
