If we want doing something to reduce mass of work, we should instead decide what to do with python2 and 3 packages.

Quite radical! : ) Somewhat understandable but it's pretty hard to decide whether both conditions are really met. Especially the condition "is not a dependency of a py2-only

I think the hardest part is how we could handle it. Does It require we stop providing python3-x and just provide python-x under python3 ? Or a provide/obsolete from each py3 packages ? I don't know.
The hardest part is how to handle new dependencies introduced by py2-only packages added *after* making the decision for the providing a py3-only package. => IMHO it's not worth the effort thinking about all the corner-cases. Please leave it like it is. Ciao, Michael.
