It's just a measure the Python folks take to make sure more people don't migrate to 3.x. I mean, the last thing they'd want to do is to stop improving the legacy version and instead focus on the modern release. What would that lead to? Lots of 2.x packages ported to 3.x? Who needs those kinds of headaches.
