I just meant to say that internet programming using ASCII urls is so common and
important that it hurts that Python 3 makes it so much harder. It sure would be
great if Python 3 could be improved to allow such programming to be done using
ASCII urls without requiring all the unicode overhead.
Armin is right. Calling his post a rant doesn't help.
I disagree. If you want to make friends and influence people, your
opening sentence is not "It's becoming increasingly harder to have
reasonable discussions about the differences between Python 2 and 3
because one language is dead and the other is actively developed." If
Python 2 is dead, why are the core developers wasting their time
committing patches to the Python 2 source code, because they have
nothing better to do?

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
