If you take a look at pep 3105 you find five rationales.
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3105/#rationale
If the first were the only one then your suggestion would have merit.
There are also the other 4 in which pass and print dont really
correspond.

[I have a personal regret that I did not rebut Steven's rudeness with
a '... that is not necessarily the view of the whole group...'
I hesitated to do so because I am not adept at giving sympathy without
giving false hope and keeping the post at reasonable length.
Anyhow this (too long) post is an attempt at correcting that.]
In the earlier (Quora-thread) Terry Reedy's voice was most balanced
and sane; unfortunately covered in the 'dog-pile' of all the rest.
Hopefully he will put in his word here as well.
