Python needs a version 4 to make a clean break:

- runtime optionally type checked interfaces

- make depending on system python an antipattern

- a reasonable package manager with lockfiles and transitive dependency versions

- package org namespaces

- steps towards hermetic builds with less linking against system libraries and dependencies

- cleanup and slimming down of the standard library. Removal of cruft. Less "batteries included" so people lean more on packages and enforcing good practices with packages.
