why not? it allows developers to migrate 2.x scripts one-by-one to working 3.0 conformant ones while maintaining backwards-compatibility w/ existing 2.x scripts & extension modules (eg. numpy, PIL, zope, ...) py3to2 can transparently import & mix & match 2.x & 3.0 scripts (but builtins/extensions must b 2.x - hence its a 2to3 migration tool). @ the moment, every script compilable by py3to2 should b 3.0 language conformant, or otherwise it would fail the syntax check & byte-compile stage performed by the python 3.0 slave interpreter (see Mechanism for details).
