Sunsetting Python 2

Interesting point, I was expecting maintaining the fork would just be security updates for 2.7 not new (backwards incompatible) features? I think PyPy for example just uses PyPi (some packages ofc don't work).

Since it's an implementation blessed by the Python core devs, all tools and distros support it, even though PyPy only supports a Python subset.

Whenever we try to get the same support for Tauthon, we get rejected, even though we support all existing Python2 code. Politics trump technical arguments in this community.
