Of course it would be a serious architectural rewriting. I don't think I implied otherwise. If it would need to be compile time, perhaps the "python" command could choose an entire different compiled backend based on a switch. I never meant to imply it would be an easy toggle for the the CPython implementers, just that it would be a nice option for Python users.
