A distribution that removes Python 2.7 once upstream security support has been cut. Since Python is frequently used on network-facing services, it is unconscionable to allow its use past January 2020. Heck, one might even have setuid programs in Python and you don't really want to risk an unfixed local privilege escalation either.

Not a distribution, and Apple doesn't exactly have a good track record with keeping things up to date or secure.

Given that the vast majority of the Python ecosystem is no longer compatible with 2.7, there isn't even a technical reason for kicking around 2.7 anymore.
Python 2.7 is trivial to build and run if you really, really want or need it, but since all the major upstream distributions have removed it, it sends a clear signal that you must take the risks into serious consideration before doing it.
