It's not that it's not there -- Python 3 has been available on Fedora for years. It's that the system tools which use Python still use Python 2, which is itself still a modern, supported environment. TBH, I think it's probably correct for critical system scripts to be more conservative in upgrading. It's also still going to be a while before Python 2 is actually removed, and while both are available the `python` executable will continue to point to Python 2. If you don't ask for Python at the moment, you'll still get in your base install, because the system uses it. You get Python 2. In the future, you'll get Python 3 instead.
