Given that this missed 18.04 LTS (and 17.10), the next logical target would be 18.10, which will not be supported into 2020. Is the lack of support for Python2 bindings in 2020 an issue for 18.10?

Python3 bindings are upstream: commit 66dfdff03d196e5 1322c6a85c0d8db 8bb2bdd655 "perf tools: Add Python 3 support".
Given that this missed 18.04 LTS (and 17.10), the next logical target would be 18.10, which will not be supported into 2020. Is the lack of support for Python2 bindings in 2020 an issue for 18.10?
