Grumpy, an experimental project from Google, transpiles Python code into Go,
allowing Python programs to be compiled and run as static binaries using the Go
toolchain.

Poor choice of words, in my opinion. Python 2 has not received new
All Linux operating systems come with Python installed, with more

since Python2 discontinued some 7-9 years ago. I believe Ubuntu still
defaults that to Python2, however.
