[Python-Dev] Python 2.7 -- bugfix or security before EOL?

I notice on https://devguide.python.org that Python 3.5 is in “security” status with an EOL of 2020-09-13 but Python 2.7 is in “bugfix” and has a likely earlier EOL. Will there be a period where Py2.7 is in security-only status before hitting EOL? Even if the EOL is set at the last possible date of 2020-12-31, it still is in the time period before EOL that other recent versions have gone to security only.
(obviously recognizing that Py2.7 EOL is not just another EOL)
I tried searching in archives for anything related to this status, but couldn’t find anything. apologies if I missed a discussion.
