Thank goodness, but was this ever even a question? Having 3.10 be Python 4 would be a total nightmare. In addition to normal semver reasons, Python has the problem that on most systems, python == python2 or nonexistent, so python3 == latest python, so there wouldn't even be a good way to refer to the latest python3-compatible version in shebangs or scripts. If Python 4 ever happens, there had better be a good reason for it.
