I think you've already answered your own question. This
is not the sort of thing that can be done piecemeal -- it
requires everything to change simultaneously to a very
different underlying model.

The other thing is that, even if some kind of migration
path could be found, Guido et al wouldn't want to follow
that path anyway -- because the end result would be too
convoluted for ordinary people to understand and maintain.
