To be excruciatingly correct, we should specify python2 or python3, because they can't interop and probably never will.

I think at this point we can rest easy that python2 has finally been fully purged from default installs. Heck a few weeks ago I installed Kubuntu 24.04 base and there was no Python at all...
Debian stable doesn't have "python" anywhere on my PATH, for a good reason IMHO. Shebangs say "/usr/bin/env python3" or hardcode "/usr/bin/python3".
