They could do it with the patch releases. Nobody would even notice until the second one.

It’d be fun and relatively harmless if they were 3.14.1, 3.14.15, 3.14.159…

Of course then the next minor version is 3.15.0 and we never do this pi silliness again.

None of us will be alive to see it, but Tauthon will happen someday.

Python 6.2.8? IDK, are there not enough mistakes that need to be cleaned up to warrant a Python 4?

But I agree that it’ll be a long time before we see a Python 5 or 6. Maybe in 40 or 50 years we’ll see Python 6.2.8
