This seems somewhat delayed, and it may be considered too little, too late. Python community had the chance to leapfrog and embrace alternative concurrency abstractions, such as go routines etc, but it appears that this opportunity was not fully utilized.

After enduring the arduous process of migrating from Python 2 -> 3 and navigating the complex world of dependencies, my hope is that we won't encounter another nightmare of dependency management, forcing users to choose between GIL and no-GIL builds.
