It is very likely that you're wrongly guessing. Numerous times, the
Python upstream people wrote that the py2 to py3 transition was a bad
idea, and they will not do the same kind of mistake again, and that
there probably wont be a Python 4 anytime.

Which is why I thought merging the content of python3-babel and
python3-babel-localedata would be a good idea.
