Wouldn't that be the case with a bundled setuptools/pip anyway? The launcher
executables are part of setuptools AFAIK.

FYI the distlib executable launchers (not based on setuptools, but work the
same way) and the distlib script generation approach does not require
distlib to run. You might be able to make use of that in some way :-)
