It would be great if the Info text was updated to reflect the above command or the python version in the image was changed.

Yup. This is an artifact of Raspbian being shipped with both Python 2 and Python 3 binaries and libraries, with /usr/bin/python linked to the latest Python 2.7.16 binary. I guess they do this because so many users' scripts would break if they changed it to link to the Python 3.7.3 binary. The same holds for pip and pip3.

I agree that the Info text should be updated.


You can always change the link yourself, or learn how to use the "update-alternatives" command.
