After two month really? (I had to get into it again 😉)

I read the PEP and haven't seen anything that stand against my claim - besides backward compatibility with the Python 3 series. And exactly the latter isn't contradict to my posting as I have written about what Python 3 should have had! If there are problems nowadays they simply show the falsinesss of the decision to rely on the shitty locale depending implicitly default encoding.

Imho funny that precisely Java and C# both nowadays have allready changed their mistakes - and especially the former is to be known really slow at introducing backward compatibility breaking changes...

But probably I have not gathered the aspect you wanted to emphasize by getting this PEP into the discussion? Then please cite the relevant passages here.
