My biggest problem with
python3, is what happens after 3.9. Python2 technically includes 1.x versions as well, so it wouldn't be unprecedented for python3 to imply versions beyond 3.x. It would be a bit confusing, though.
My problem isn’t that it includes it, it’s that either people have to go
through the mess to update all of their things to python4 at some point
in the future, or Python 3.x will need to eventually mean python.
Well that or Python 4.x has a python3 binary.
