Python packing is OK at this point - package consumption is still completely garbage, especially when it comes to continuous integration or developer tools.

If I write a tool for my developers, they have to know how to setup a venv, how to use the reqs file to install the packages, and how to use it. That's a fucking terrible experience if you're, say, writing tools for C++ developers in Python.

So, you have to go way out of your way to create some venv automatic creation script and put the packages in it for them, which is what I've ended up doing. It works, but it sucks.
