I use Python to work with various network and serial protocols a lot,
and using Python 3 certainly seems like more work. The fact that
Python 2 and 3 both have a type called 'bytes' but the two types are
completely incompatible makes it especially hard to write portable
code that doesn't look like it's been intentionally obfuscated.
