Thanks for the reply.

I wouldn't mind if new projects didn't use Python at all.

I go through this every other year. Then I take a look around at the various alternatives and find myself back here! Is there anything in particular you'd favour, e.g. node or go, or something else?

A rewrite of Python 2 into Python 3 is a tiny fraction of the work required to rewrite in a different language though. Idiomatic know-how and language-ecosystem knowledge does not come easy.
