Sorry can you EILI(have 3ish years of python experience but rarely get this far into the weeds.)
What is an example of being more incomprehensible?
>Python code doesn't even work with Python code
Is this statement a function of the 2 > 3 transition.

Migrating away from the pseudocodeness of Python.
Just a guess though I have about the same experience as you.
Python's type hints, in particular, have added a huge amount of complexity to the last few versions of the language.
However, the numerous (very long) typing-related PEPs are definitely making the language larger and more complex.
Also, any code that uses annotations is more verbose and less like what I want from Python - executable pseudocode.
On the other hand, Guido himself recently said "new stdlib code should be written with annotations inline" [0] whereas the core developers original position was "it will be the choice of the author of new stdlib modules whether and how to use type hints" [1], or even "We will not be putting type annotations anywhere in the stdlib" [2].
