Perhaps such decisions need revisiting in light of subsequent experience / pain / learning. E.g: - - the repeated inability of the web-sig to converge on appropriate semantics for a Python3-compatible version of the WSGI spec; - - the subsequent quirkiness of the Python3 wsgiref implementation; - - the breakage in cgi.py which prevents handling file uploads in a web application; - - the slow adoption / porting rate of major web frameworks and libraries to Python 3.
