That seems reasonable to me: if there is indeed never going to be a
Python 2.8, there is no way the PEP can ever be accepted for a Python 2
release anyway.

Given this, I might go further and suggest dropping all mention of
Python 2. It might make the wording issues easier. (Although, ahem, that
would mean a bunch of rewriting for some poor soul.)

Or go straight for unmolested os.environ, as long as there is that note
that it's not really the Right Thing. If we're going to be wrong for
some cases either way, might as well go for the simplest. The PEP code
needs to be illustrative more than it needs to be 100% correct.
