Let me add a quote from Nick's essay (see other new thread).
'''Ned Batchelder’s wonderful Pragmatic Unicode talk/essay could just as 
well be titled “This is why Python 3 exists”.'''

I do not know if Nick's re-titling expression your intent or not, but it 
expresses my feeling also. Part of what makes the presentation great is 
the humor, which we need more of. I recommend it to anyone who has not 
seen it.
