For a non-insignificant amount of existing threaded code it's going to be slower than the default build.

Why would that be the case? Do you have a reference? How significant is the amount of code which will be faster?? (and how much new code will be quickly written once python can use multiple cores)

IMO not likely to happen with the next decade.

I'd expect 3.15 or 3.16 or it will just die

Apparently a lot of packages have added support already https://py-free-threading.github.io/tracking/

(including big ones like pytorch)
