I'm skeptical that will happen.  Even if it does, that alone is likely
not enough to claim python3 by default.  You need all the basic
functionality to work with pthon3, e.g. yum and dnf would also need to
be ported.

I agree with everything Mirek said, as well as his take on the FESCo reasoning.

We'd really like to see this happen, we don't want to slow down the
work.  We just don't feel F22 is a release that is going to accurately
reflect the python3 as default status.
