The community has. However Redhat has customers that want support for old systems and are willing to pay for it. CentOS is essentially a repackaged unsupported version of Redhat Enterprise Linux. If you want support for packages against an old version of python, you can contact Redhat (as per this[1] post by core python developer and Redhat employee).
