I personally would like for `python` to be the latest Python 3 version (or

It appears python is already python3 for a large majority of human users
(as opposed to machines).
https://www.jetbrains.com/research/python-developers-survey-2018/
Nearly 20000 valid responses, Oct-Nov.
"Which version of Python do you use the most"
Python 3: 75% in 2017, 84% in 2018. The figure for other public surveys
were 22%, 34%, 40% in Dec 2013, Dec 2014, Jan 2016. I expect at least
90% by next January. Py3 is already 90% among data scientists.
