I can't help but believe a sane world would've moved from Python to PyPy

Yes, and this is my fundamental complaint with the Python 3 transition. It took probably millions of engineer-hours, and the result was better Unicode support and a handful of minor features most of which could have been added to Python 2 just as easily. I suspect most users would gladly have traded those benefits for a 10x performance improvement.
