The lack of core maintenance isn't meaningless (it's true someone else could step in, but it's not clear they will in any substantial way.)
More importantly, the fact that major libraries are dropping Python 2 support is not meaningless. (Again, I suppose, it's possible that people could fork IPython, NumPy, Django, etc., from the last Py 2 supporting version and extend support, but that seems even less likely than the core language getting solid support by way of a community fork.)
