I don't agree with that statement. Python3 has better Unicode I/O
support, but apart from that it's pretty much the same show.

Python3 fixes the "print" statement to be a function, which allows
much better extensibility of the concept.

You can have the same in Python2 with a little effort: just create
your own myprint() function and have it process Unicode in whatever
way you want.
