This article someone linked is not 14 years old and it perfectly describes the mess python and pip are: chriswarrick.com/…/how-to-improve-python-packagin…

My favorite part is:

Most importantly: which tool should a beginner use? The PyPA has a few guides and tutorials, one is using pip + venv, another is using pipenv (why would you still do that?), and another tutorial that lets you pick between Hatchling (hatch’s build backend), setuptools, Flit, and PDM, without explaining the differences between them

But yes, following old blog post is the issue.
