It seems to support Python 3 (3.5.4): https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/runt...

Support exists at least since August 2016: https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2016/08/python-3-on-Goo...

Flexible environment only. This matters because the standard environment's pricing structure is a lot better for apps that go significant periods without much traffic, or that have spiky traffic patterns that necessitate fast scaling.
What prevents Google from offering Python3 support in standard environment? Is this a business decision?
It's on the roadmap and there's a public statement that it'll ship next year.
