why not re-write the workshop for python3 and require python2 users to wear the pain downgrade brings?

Because python2 is a deprecated language that will EOL?

I'm not sure it's fair to call it legacy just yet. Most linux distributions (minus Arch I think) still use 2.7 as the default.

I get EOL/deprecation is here but lets not jump the gun to legacy just yet. I just see more 2 than 3 @ Day Job.
