Yep, this is still where Fedora is at as well - step 1 is to eliminate legacy references to the python symlink, and then step 2 will be to figure out if/when it ever comes back as a way of referring to a generic version of Python. Personally, I suspect it's more likely that we''ll start shipping https://github.com/brettcannon/python-launcher with CPython at some point, similar to the way we ship the original py launcher for Windows.
