That's what happens when you want to support a version of Python that was released in 2008 or 2010. Perhaps the impetus for people to move onto Python 3 has to come from people like you saying "I'm not going to support 2.7 any more as of version X.Y", and letting them run two interpreters. It's really not that hard to keep 2.7 around for what expects it, and 3.4/3.5/whatever for everything else.
