Comments by "Scott Franco" (@scottfranco1962) on "Arch Linux Finally Puts An End To Python 2!!" video.
Languages that have new versions incompatible with past versions say to me that the designers can't plan for the future and don't value the past.

@BrodieRobertson Yea, I get that, and (rant on), this just seems to be the trend right now. GTK3 to GTK4 is rip up and retry, and I believe GTK2-3 was similar. There is lack of respect for existing users going around. What did Linus say? Change the user API and I'll break your arm? I went through the Python 2-3 thing at Apple, and it was just tremendously annoying. In fact, they have so much python code in their support code that I suspect it will be years before they get it either fixed or give up on sections of the code.
