And python 3.0 is long out of support. Any OS of around that date is already out of support: patches, virus, etc. Even the long LTS Ubuntu versions and relatively long supported Debian versions are out of support. Windows 7 was released in 2009 and is out of service January 2020. Windows 8 out of support. Windows 8.1 still quite some years to go. Python.org really promotes to use 3.x. Why would any "new" user try to download 2.7? Most Windows users want to have the "latest and greatest" anyway (sorry, my prejudice). MacOS updates are only bound by older hardware, otherwise upgrades are free and easy to install. MacOS is always running (way) behind with python but that can easily be upgraded. If you want an old (unsupported) OS with python 2.7, you can simply take an older Hugin version. All Hugin versions since 2009~2011 function very nice. Use a "classic" Hugin on a "classic" OS. But that's my personal view on supporting "old stuff".
