Which is so much easier than dealing with all the crap that Python 3 brought in. Very few people review the APIs in Python 3 now because there are barely any users.
I'll be honest, I'm not a fluent python programmer (I've worked with other people's code and hacked some small things together, but my strengths are in other languages). Currently the discussions about 2 vs 3 are scaring me away from investing time into actually learning the language in depth.
This is my decision as well. Although I have a ton of python experience and have used it on and off since 2.2. Luckily most of my work lies in the web development space so there's no problem finding alternatives and python 2.7 is still great.

The alternative is dealing with those warts that built up. This is a necessary evil!
