Besides which, it would be lovely to have a major release that didn't involve any pain at all for the majority of users!

Our erstwhile BDFL always eschewed two-digit version identifiers- due to the possibility for confusion about collating sequence, I beleive.. We should honour his preferences by going from 3.9 to 4.0.

Is 4.0 still gonna install as "python3", pip3, etc, executable as "py -3" on windows? I can see that being a pain point even if nothing else is.
