While the re2 comparison might be interesting from an abstract standpoint, it intentionally supports a different regex language from Python so that it can run faster and use less memory. Since re2 can never replace Python's re module, it doesn't make sense to hold MRAB's new module to that standard.
re2 comparison is interesting from the point of if it should be included in stdlib.
