I've been using Python 3.x since Python 3.1 came out, and I haven't come
across any meaningful problems with the everyday dealing with strings.
Quite the opposite -- I never quite understood the difference between text
strings and byte strings until I started using Python 3.

Perhaps you would care to explain what these everyday problems are that you
have seen?
