No. > - What should user get after using "yum install python"? Will a base install include Python 3? If it does, I think yum install python should mean python3, and hence already be installed.

Yep, base will include Python 3. This is not just about python package, but also all other python extension modules (e.g. python-foo vs. python2-foo vs. python3-foo...).
