That pretty much sums it up for me. I wouldn't have done it this way, but we are too far ahead on the Python 3 line and it's probably time to let go off the debate and move on to Python 3, at least for new projects. Needless to say that the Python web developers community was set back by couple of years due to diverted attention. When Python should have been looking at concurrency and async support, everyone had to get busy maintaining duplicate code. The biggest issue probably was for the library developers (Django, Flask, Jinja, pymongo etc) to create a new Py3 package. But now that most of the important libraries and frameworks have moved to Python 3, application developers could probably move along with the change. It's not that much work for the app developers.
