Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

The current ugly, implicit, complex ROT13? + custom decoder version of this.py 
violates the initial tenets that it prints. I suppose that is an intentional 
joke. If it were explicit and simple:

text = '''<title>
<text lines>
...'''
print(text)

then people could follow up
  import this
with
  this.text
and learn something about accessing module attributes.
