The reason for continuing to provide old versions of a framework is so that older applications that were compiled against the old version of the framework continue to work.

Yeah, I was afraid it was going to be something like that...

I presume you do know that Python's build system has a provision for appending a suffix to the library name, i.e. creating Python27.framework (which also has the binary Python27 somewhere in it) requires modifying only a single setting. This must have appeared around Python 2.5 or 2.6, before that one had to edit a couple of Makefiles in order to achieve the same effect.
