If I follow the logic in this python specification then python is the generic
executable for programs running with python2 or python3.

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/

With the logic the 'provides' python and python-twisted are virtual provides in
the python2 and python2-twisted packages that will be moved into python3 and
python3-twisted at some point. So I doubt that python and python-twisted will
go away, they will just move to another package, and should be usable by python
version independent programs (which is what we have).

$ rpm -q --provides python2-twisted
python-twisted = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted(x86-64) = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-conch = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-core = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-core-doc = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-mail = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-names = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-news = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-runner = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-web = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-web2 = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python-twisted-words = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python2-twisted = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python2-twisted(x86-64) = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python2.7dist(twisted) = 18.4.0
python2dist(twisted) = 18.4.0

$ rpm -q --provides python3-twisted
python3-twisted = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python3-twisted(x86-64) = 18.4.0-4.fc28
python3.6dist(twisted) = 18.4.0
python3dist(twisted) = 18.4.0
