"Python 3" in those sorts of contexts refers to the whole ecosystem including the 3rd party libs. I don't know that I'd say that the language or ecosystem is "responsible". It's just there, with its good and bad points, and people who choose to engage with it find themselves engaging with those points further into the weeds than they might have expected. One of the attractions of Python 2 has traditionally been the existence of a solid library codebase to build on. John is telling us that the Python 3 experience still has dark alleys. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
