I really don't think commercial profit as the motive for a request, or ability to pay, should be an important reason to ignore user wants.

We've already got corrosion on the terminals the leaky batteries-included stdlib (ssl, anyone?). I see nothing wrong with rejecting additional batteries proposed purely FBO organizations who have the kind of policies you describe, but don't contribute blood-or-treasure toward their maintenannce (especially because they are in the "enterprise" space, and could be expected to pay for that kind of support).

This kind of "Python-in-a-tie" discussion is probably moot for any version of Python that python-dev actually cares about, BTW: by the time such organizations get around to using 3.5, it likely won't even be getting security releases from the core developers.
