I appreciate that this is a side note from the point you're making, but
bzr was forked as brz ("breezy"); that fork supports Python 3 and is
compatible with existing bzr branches. I expect we will indeed need to
remove bzr at some point, but that shouldn't be a major problem for most
upstreams still using it.
