I agree that having some of datetime.now([tz]) functionality replicated in datetime.today() makes little sense.  However, the presence of this method in datetime class is a consequence of datetime being a subclass of the date class. The latter was a design mistake IMO, but as other pointed out it is too late to do anything about it.
