But if Python really ♥'d you back, it'd at least attempt to offer something resembling first-class Unicode support.

Thanks; I'll give it a whirl.
This is a rather unfair comment given the huge efforts that have gone into python 3 and migration of big projects like Django. Unicode support is clearly an important issue for the python community.
You're probably right, and I've had to apologize to Python a number of times in the past. So let this be another. I'm still a bit scarred from a certain 2.7-era experience, so presumably you can empathize.
