I didn't check the shebangs but I'm pretty much sure my MSYS2 environment has no Python2 installed (though it might be a `python` command is available targeting to Python3). I'll check this next time when booting the machine.

Not explicitly, I think.

Apart from that, I think the 1.38 milestone is a bit optimistic. I'm sure we can and should solve all related issues for 1.38. After all, using only Python3 for builds is nice to have but not release critical.
