You can use the old 2.x syntax also in Python 3.x:
Yeah, but it's deprecated, and - as I understand it - may be removed
completely in future versions. Also, in the future, if you are working
with code from another developer, it's likely that developer will use
the new format. I suppose you can use both - but what an awful mess
that would be.
It seems to me that 3.0 is changing a lot of non-problems. And it's
going to be slower to boot.
How is this? With projects like PyPy eventually enabling the JIT'ing of
python3 code, I don't see how this is going to be "slower." If anything
we have a python that can be made to run faster than ever before.
What makes you think PyPy is going to enabling JIT'ing of Python 3 code?
Perhaps it will, someday, but I suspect it will provide a JIT for Python 2
long before.
