I don't know whether Tk should replaced, but I
can explain why I don't use it for our commercial
Python application.

It is just too big and complicated.  Windows comes
with a built-in GUI, and I hesitate to install
another scripting language (Tcl) and its libraries,
and then install a big system which has frequently been
out of phase with Python releases just to access the
Windows GUI.

What if a user calls with a problem?  Why should I
have to debug their Tcl library path problems?  No
thanks.
