That's an unfortunate decision. When the 2.X line stops being maintained (after 2.7 maybe?) we're going to be stuck with the "3" suffix forever for the "real" Python.

I don't see why we have to be stuck with it forever. When 2.x has faded into the sunset, we can start aliasing 'python' to 'python3' if we want, can't we?
