I don't think Chris was arguing that "direct to .pyc" mode would be the
only / default one, just an option for particular deployment scenarios.

I think the "keep .pyc files" mode is only for deployment (to GAE or
other platforms which can't compile the templates);  it would be
irrelevant for any development mode.
