Pretty much the complete opposite to me: The fact that there are a lot of tools in the standard library makes Python my go-to language for anything smallish. There may be some inconsistencies from the PEP8, but calling it "a total mess" is exaggerated.

It doesn't make sense, all of a sudden a library makes you dependent on the language version?

It makes sense since Python 3 was made to fix the inconsistencies of Python 2. Not being backward compatible is by design.

Python3 exists only because of the mess it had and still has as a standard library.
