the work in dh-python is not trivial. The work needed in thousands of
packages (all Python related packages build depend on python{,-dev} or
python-all{,-dev} is not as well. Rebuilding all binary packages means
even more work (${python:Depends} is not always the only dependency)…
and that's only a work in Debian. There are lots of packages outside
Debian that will need to be updated… for what purpose exactly?
To make it easier to propose later python2-foo binary package rename,
like Fedora did?

not yet. We all know that it will happen sooner or later, though.
How about creating DEP-394 with a strong message that we have default
Python 2.X and default Python 3.X interpreters and once 2.X will be
gone. Python 3 will NOT become default Python 2.X?
