Since 2.7 is more different from 3.2 than is 3.4, it seems more likely that 
grafting from 2.7 to 3.x will result in having to undo 2.7-specific changes 
and/or add back 3.x-specific changes, and even more so when skipping 3.2.

But this is all secondary to my point that we shouldn't include in our basic 
instructions things that we know won't work for some people when there is a 
straightforward alternative (and one that uses no new concepts).  At the very 
least, we should provide a working alternative alongside.
