Using python2 is in no way similar to going without fire insurance. There are internal-only apps that will run fine for decades to come with no risk to the business on py27.
There are many maintenance mode projects where the switch to 3 represents absolutely no upside and is all downside risk. Not everyone is developing web apps in constant flux that are exposed to the Internet. That is a tiny fraction of python’s use cases.
