PIP can be easily used inside any Python virtual environment when really
needed, so IMHO, there is no need to propagate PIP mess system wide, and we
should system-wide installs be from rpms only by default.
Not only many versions of same packages is problem with PIP, but we also lose
track of library dependencies in binary packages.
But the PEP you linked above suggests that 'pip' and 'ensurepip' should
always be available system-wide and capable of upgrading pip itself.
Even if we agree using those system wide is not a good idea, we should
make it work in a way, that minimizes the damages.
