He got really hung up on the % syntax.
I guess it's good to know that there is, at least, one person in the
world doesn't like the % formatting. As least the move was not
entirely pointless.
But, you must admit, of all the things people complain about with
Python, the % formatting is probably one of the least common
complaints. Complaints about Python's speed seem much more common.

People complaining about the perceived issues wrt/ Python's speed are
welcome to fix it. As far as I'm concerned, I find the perfs more than
acceptable when you take Python's dynamism into account. Strange enough,
no one seems to complain about PHP or Ruby's performances...

Yet, 3.0 makes the speed worse,
first make it right, then make it fast...
and "fixes" a non-problem.
I can see where the new formatting might be helpful in some cases.
But, I am not sure it's worth the cost.
Err... _Which_ cost exactly ?
