FWIW, count me as +1 on roundTiesToEven, mostly just for consistency. It's easier to remember that pretty much everything in Python 3 does round-ties-to-even (round function, string formatting, float literal evaluations, int-to-float conversion, Fraction-to-float conversion, ...) than to have to remember that there's a handful of corner cases where we do roundTiesToAway instead.
