This isn't correct. I'm using the composition API on all my Vue 2 projects. It's even baked into 2.7.

It’s nowhere close to the python version debacle that I first came across back in 2012, which was already years old. Vue v3 is very new if not bleeding edge. And there are polyfills for new v3 features like the Composition API[0].

In Vue 3.2I'm assuming this is the wider full framework release, not just the new functional/composition api?

I've been using the above for the last month and it's a far superior way of building components IMO. I've been able to reduce the amount of unneeded observer watchers and tracked properties by about 50%.
The distinction between simple raw JS objects and functions and what are Vue-tracked/computed properties makes the whole thing feel cleaner.
Typescript integration is also much better and doesn't feel like a hack like the Class component approach did.
Plus the eventual tree-shaking benefits of importing only the parts you need is great.
