Engine internals exposed to Python 2.7 for scripting
Python 2 is not supported anymore, a lot of Linux distributions provided without Python2 by default - Ubuntu 20.04 for example.
We needed to sunset Python 2 so we can help Python users by improving Python faster.

Maybe it's time to move to Python 3 ?

The engine requires a modified version of Python 2.7 that is in-tree. So it is independent from the default Python version provided by your distribution. As a large amount of code has already been written against the Python 2.7 C API, the change is difficult and not practical.
