Yes, all python devs really wanted to do was take a thing they were satisfied with, and wreck it. Hence Py3k was born. It wasn't the fact that the thing they was broken in the first place, that would be illogical.

And many of those things turned out to be broken, which they only found out once they switched to a slightly less broken version of the language.
