I was replying to "If you consider that Java is on version 8 and C++14 is here, we can see that even old languages have done this in a much more organized way" C++14 and Java have extremely minor breaking changes. I'm not saying it has to be that way, but the demographic that uses Ruby is different from the demographic that uses those other languages and Python. But the main thing is probably that Python 2 is the default version on OSX and Ubuntu. Updating to a newer version requires going to the Python site or installing Brew/Macports.
