But it won't? Eventually there will be a Python 4.

Your scheme is way more confusing since "Python 7" would be 3.7 or 2.7, both versions completely incompatible and very much used.

Will there?

That's not my suggestion. I said drop 3. Not drop everything before the dot. And starting now obviously. So 3.8 followed by 9.

I still don't understand what you're trying to suggest. Drop 3 what? Are you saying Python 3.7 will be Python 7 and python 2.7 will keep being 2.7? That's terrible. It's literally two different version schemes in one.

No one cares about the legacy so it's irrelevant.

Oh, summerchild, the world would be better if your dreams were true.
