But I feel like the opposition (not you, but definitely some others -- have you seen Twitter?) are spreading FUD based on an irrational conviction that this will destroy Python. It will not. It may not prove the solution to all Python's problems -- there's always 3.6. (Oh wait, Python 2.7 is perfect. I've heard that before -- Paul Everitt famously said the same of Python 1.5.2. Aren't you glad I didn't take him literally? :-P ) -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
