It's not like there are alternatives. Don't even mention Golang - it's a piece of dried up crap with arbitrary limitations (error handling from the 90ties, no ability to implement datastructures with native api, no operator overloading). Might as well use Pascal ...
It seems to me that just few bratty library developers (shamed by their users into fixing their shit to support Python 3) are the main detractors.
Now start downvoting ... cause we all love Armin and his unconstructive bitching.
Oh now you've done it... now you're going to hear it from the Delphi developers....

That's not the most diplomatic way of putting it, but it's fairly accurate. One Python library maintainer once said "Why should we ever port to 3 when Python 2's going to be supported FOREVER?" It's just inertia at this point.
