R. David Murray added the comment:

str accepting bytes and returning the repr was a conscious design choice, as 
evidenced by the -bb option, and I'm sure there is code that is both 
unintentionally and *intentionally* using this, despite the warning.  Unless we 
want to discuss making the -bb behavior the default in a future version of 
python, this issue should be closed.
