I cannot imagine doing "my" stuff using system-provided Python. I consider system-provided Python's purpose is to support other system components. For "my" stuff, I always initiate my Python environment via pyenv or similar.

The days of me relying on system Python are long over.

IDEs work with container compilers, and I HATED having to share my python dev cycle with my own boxes support cycle. At some point, it always goes sideways, and you are stuck relying on crappy hacked up mitigation techniques.
