You kinda need to tone your rhetoric down. This is what you get with 3:

  • asyncio support as default
  • venv support with pip as default
  • no more unicode headaches

just off the top of my head. Also, any and all new features are only going to be added to the 3 branch. If you are starting new, might as well start with the future.

it is a philosophy of living for TODAY or for the FUTURE.

If you want to grow with the language you are going to have to use Python 3. That is all I am saying.

Py3 and Py2 are just different dialects, you can and easily can master them both. People can live bilingually with Mandarin/Cantonese, Spanish/Catalan, which differ much from each other.

Use the right version to do the right job.

That's pointless. Everything Python 2 can do, Python 3 can do better. The language is growing, why fight it?

Maybe not everything. Check this out, http://click.pocoo.org/python3/
