They are all pluses, but most of those didn't exist till the last couple years. So effectively the first 6 or so years of Python 3 existing had much less incentive.

I think the flip around - ~30% adoption of a newest version at 1-2 years in - especially one that breaks backwards compatibility isn't bad.

I've started numerous python projects at work over the last year all on 2.7. I think we just started the last one. We're finally ready to jump to 3.
