The whole Python drama is ridiculous.

When ruby broke all applications when changed from 1.8 to 1.9 (note that it also was a minor version change) no one complained, they just fixed their language and moved on.

I think Python spoiled developers.

There would be less issues if it would never released 2.7 (that version almost exclusively was backporting 3.x features - until 2015 people were asking what features 3 would give that 2.7 didn't have) and just deprecate 2.6 after a year or so like everyone else does.
