Now we're talking about having to add preview into that mix too? As I understand it, Guido nixed that idea. (Or did I imagine that?)

No, you are right, discussion should cease. It is already marked 'rejected' and listed under Abandoned, Withdrawn, and Rejected PEPs.

Preview modules will be just added to the std lib as normal, and you have to read the docs to find out they're preview.

What's New should say so too.
