My experience teaching and consulting suggests that this would be a bad move.
People are using Python2.7 and are going to docs.python.org for information.
This would only disrupt their experience.

It wouldn't "promote" anything, it would just make accessing the documentation
more awkward for the large majority of users who are still on Python 2.

When there is more uptake of Python 3, it would be reasonable move.
If it is done now, it will just create confusion and provide no benefit.
