This is true and incomplete at the same time.<p>It&#x27;s true that 3 is happily happening for many people, effectively and without fuss.<p>But it&#x27;s incomplete to pretend the schism is not an issue; not to try to understand the pro-2.x points which many reasonable users have.<p>Its a huge issue, even now, and to pretend it&#x27;s not there is to do BOTH pythons a disservice because it will simply serve to feed the disagreement, to the detriment of both flavours of the language.<p>The Python 3 project needs to understand where it went wrong, acknowledge it, &#x27;better language&#x27; arguments (true-ish but largely ineffective) notwithstanding, and try to bridge the community.<p>Yes the 3 segment reasonably wishes all this would just go away so we can all focus on moving python forward, but it&#x27;s not going away. It must be adressed without yet another post about 3 being better, which simply makes 2.7 people feel like second class citizens. They&#x27;ve heard all the arguments before.
