Seems Guido answer your questions himself. Quote from 
http://www.artima.com/forums/flat.jsp?forum=106&thread=146503:

"""From this perspective, Zope and Twisted are off the scale: they support the 
mix-and-match approach, offering several alternative solutions for many of the 
important issues (templating, persistence, authentication, etc.). But they only 
work if you drink lavish quantities of their particular flavor of kool-aid, and 
that's not good enough for me. I don't want to depend on any particular flavor 
of interfaces, adaptation, serialization, discovery, etc. I'm looking for 
solutions that depend only on the Python standard library, and use accepted 
Python idioms and patterns. Any takers?"""
