> How long has the code which was transitioned to python lasted?

A long time. 2to3 was good for ~90% of my code, at least

Good for 90% of your code is not equivalent to getting precisely the same results from unmodified code written in the 80s.

More likely to mean 90% of projects, not 90% of each file, which would mean that every one was broken.
