> What would have been really nice is if the $1M/y in funding the PSF rejected due to ideological purity could have been reallocated to PyPy.
It would certainly have been nice if the Trump administration had not retroactively obliged the NSF to add ideological constraints to its funding parameters which conflicted with the PSF's mission, so that money that had already been allocated by the NSF to the PSF could not be granted.
I'm not sure what the process is by which you purport that the money could have been redirected to PyPy, but I assure you that it exists only in your imagination.
