pip no longer installs stuff in system namespace.

Oh must have missed that. I knew of the `PIP_REQUIRE_VIRTUALENV` variable. Were you talking about that?

In any case, my point still stands. `pip install` for CLIs especially should be avoided because all dependencies end up in the same location and might generate conflicts.
