What's exactly wrong with importlib and what do you mean support any of that stuff ? It's a py3 carrot - what else do you expect ?

Also, it's kinda weird that you complain about the lack of real world experience. There's a community process and you can get involved in the creation and review of PEPs if you think the PEPs could/should be better.

How good is a carrot nobody supports? 3.4 changed the importlib interfaces again and deprecated a whole bunch when introducing the module specs of stuff but did not provide replacement functionality.

I am not using Python 3. All my Python 3 experience is coming from porting libraries for a barely existing user base.

I'm pretty sure that's quite enough :)

I have zero interest in investing more time into Python 3. I do not believe Python 3 is something that can be repaired in a way to surpass Python 2 in enjoyability for me.
