It may have closer to zero cost of the initial implementation, but the
cost of maintaining, supporting in different standard and third-party
modules, teaching and learning, and using is far from zero.
Just look how many special cases Python 2 print has: print without
arguments, printing a tuple, print >>, print with trailing comma. And
the latter feature ("soft" space) is not supported by files in Python 3,
so you would need to change them too, and all file-like objects in the
world.
Getting rid of the print statement was one of the largest achievements
of Python 3 (after all-unicode).
