I think one overlooked good thing is how little drama I hear about the transition from 5.6 to 7. People seem to be moving on quickly (the large perf improvements help a lot). I feel it's not going to be long before almost anyone with a half skilled dev to care for it will be on 7 and we won't have a Python 2 vs 3 or Perl 5 vs 6 scenario.
