Brett Cannon added the comment:

I still don't think it's worth the potential breakage to remove these from the built-in namespace; there is enough code in Python 3 to not warrant breaking them, nor making any porting harder for those still on Python 2. You can ask on python-dev, though, to see how other core devs feel because I don't feel strongly enough to block it.
