I don't either. Occasional change to the grammar is not THE problem why
Jython and others lag behind. And the occasional changes are the reason
why Python is so pleasant to work with. Removing the little annoyances,
adding language support for features recognized as important, and so on.

Python 3 support is of course important, but freezing language features
doesn't seem to be the way.
