Speaking as someone who's been on a distro that has python 3 as the
default since 2.7 came out, and being a professional python developer
working on codebases that often don't work on python 3, I don't really
consider this a sensible default. I often have a symlink ahead of the
system python binary in my path that points to python2. More
importantly, I think it should be tunable. I *do* sometimes make use of
having both available.
