You could make similar arguments about 2.5 or earlier releases (or 3.0), all of 
which have already been removed.  More importantly, python-dev uses the version 
field to indicate "the known versions of Python that the issue affects and 
should be fixed for" (http://docs.python.org/devguide/triaging.html#versions), 
not all versions (supported or otherwise) that might be affected by the issue.  
Since at least the time 2.6 entered security-fix mode, we have routinely 
deselected 2.6 from those issues where is was set, so, even if we didn't remove 
2.6 from the version list, you could not depend on searching the version field 
for 2.6.
