What's the case against?
From a 3.x perpective, an irrelevant 'u' would be pure noise and make the language a bit harder to learn. The intent for 3.x is that one be able to learn 3.x without knowing anything about 2.x. So bridge stuff has been put into 2.6 and even more in 2.7. But it does not really belong in 3.x.
