Let's maintain every version of everything ever made, forever. Won't somebody please think of the children!

But if that wasn't sarcasm, nobody's removing "access" to this historical artefact. Python 2's source code is available as long as somebody stores it. But the resources required to keep it secure are needed elsewhere. If you simply want to preserve it, talk to an archivist. The Python community has moved on.
