a leaf package from a Python 2 perspective and is thus blocking its

Right, and that's the completely wrong approach. You can't just remove
important packages because of your goal. You have to actively help
people who have contributed to Debian for several years now. Just asking
them to remove their packages is disrespectful and a poor way to
contribute to Debian.
Sorry, I do not mean any disrespect. What can I do to help?
