[As much a nudge for myself as anything else, but if you(whoever you are) get to it first then great!]

Playing around with low-level changes earlier and it is incredibly annoying having to wait for `2to3` in `tox` runs. Answer seems obvious, drop 2to3 ;)

There are already a few hacks to work around things that aren't converted by `2to3`, so we're already paying the cost of `2to3` in build time *and* version branching in code complexity.
