I agree with this sentiment.  Also see comments by Ben Darnell and
others here:
https://github.com/python/peps/pull/272#pullrequestreview-41388700

Moreover I think that a 2.7 policy decision shouldn't depend on
whatever future plans there are for Requests.  The slippery slope of
relaxing maintenance policy on 2.7 has come to absurd extremities.
If Requests is to remain 2.7-compatible, it's up to Requests to do the
necessary work to do so.

Regards

Antoine.
