No, the problem is that Python 3 sucked, and still sucks.

Twisting your user's arms even more painfully won't solve the problem, it will just accelerate users switching away to other languages or forks.

There's plenty of problems with Python 3 and the transition, none of them are that "Python 3 sucks".

You know that, of course, otherwise you'd have provided an actual claim rather than a generic complaint.

How does python 3 suck? It seems quite pleasant to use for me, and I much prefer the clean bytes/str separation.
