I don't think it's bad advice to suggest that people learn Python 2 if they want to get stuff done, and since people keep saying how Python 3 is really the same language, let us entertain that assertion and encourage people to take advantage of its predecessor: the thing which actually powers the overwhelming majority of Python-powered systems today and for the foreseeable future.
