This question hasn't really updated on the steering council's decision on PEP 703: https://discuss.python.org/t/a-steering-council-notice-about-pep-703-making-the-global-interpreter-lock-optional-in-cpython/30474
@Lorenzo That is a good point. If there is a GIL-less mode, that accomplishes basically all of the motive for removing the GIL, so I would say resolve to NO. I will update title to include the word "mandatory"
