EOL for RHEL 8 will be in 10 years and python2 in RHEL8 will be a fully supported package even if not installed by default. And I suspect that it is not only Redhat that will need to support python2 past 2020. For example, I guess Ubuntu 20.4 with EOL in 2025 will still have a package. So there will be upgrade and fixes for python2 just not from python.org.
