Comment (by macports.jgonggrijp@…):

 python2 points to python2.7.

 I think the python2 and python3 links should both exist regardless of what
 version is selected as the default. The Python versions are installed in
 parallel for a reason; you want to be able to run both and be able to
 (portably) indicate which one for example in a shebang line. See the PEP
 for a full rationale.
