After the backlash to Python 3's breaking changes, I doubt Python will ever do that again, unfortunately.

Well can I ask for interpreter warnings when it detects the new syntax? “Using these features makes your code harder to understand and maintain …”

I actually think either a new PEP-8 or an opinionated linter would be one way to test the waters. Black[1] seems to be gaining popularity by enforcing strong opinions. I remember reading large companies' (like Google's) coding styles.
