This is a rather surprising proposition considering that

  #! /usr/bin/env python3

is the only portable choice for calling "python3". Not everything is
installed in /usr/bin, and even if there is a /usr/bin/python, then it's
not necessarily the interpreter the users wants to be used. If such a
system-path is hard-coded into the script, then it's a lot more
difficult to re-use it in other contexts. Relying on whatever is in
$PATH, however, gives users control over what is going on, so I very
much prefer that as a default choice.

Best regards,
Peter
