What I'm trying (poorly) to say is: as long as we explicitly state "python3" everywhere and diligently avoid "python", we'll be OK: we will not need to care what "python" points to in a given distro. The motivation for keeping "python -> python2" is/was to avoid breaking legacy scripts. I guess the Fedora folks are not so concerned about that. And it seems reasonable to expect even the more conservative distros to switch over to "python -> python3", at some point in the future - when Python 2 recedes into the cosmic background noise and the fear of breaking older scripts will have subsided.
