It always bugs me to think about the Python community not rallying around PyPy. Faster Python is right there and has been there for years. Sure there can be C-extension issues but projects like HPy showed you can remedy that. Why doesn’t everyone just use and support PyPy?
"C-extension issues" are not something you can just gloss over. They're a huge chunk of python usage. Users won't rally around that. And Hpy is dead. If CPython embraced PuPy, worked with it to smooth those issues then maybe things would be different.
