Seems to me that Python 2 inertia comes from old libraries and badly written code is holding many folks back. I switched to Python 3.1 when it was released and have never had to look back. My code took very little time to convert and as for libraries, I always seem to be able to find ones that are compatible with Python 3.x Seems to me that much of the hand-wringing that is going on, is because some people don't want to change / upgrade. Well that is their choice. If your favourite library is not Python 3 compatible - then fork it and upgrade it ! If that's too much work, then use a library that is.
