Hey, I get what this is asking for, but is there any use case for gvim-python3 providing gvim?

Both provide vim so they already replace one another when you install one when the other is installed.

Some vim packages require gvim as a dependency instead of simply vim, such as vim-ultisnips in the community repo, or other examples in the AUR such as vim-conque. For most other vim packages, though, it indeed works fine.
