I don't think your experience is atypical but I do think your acceptance of something that is quite awful is fairly atypical.

It's also possible that you use Python on Linux, where it is at least tolerable. Try again on Windows.

I develop Python exclusively on Windows (that then is deployed on Linux) and my experience is identical to the original poster. It's not a perfect system, but it's good enough and I have dealt with dependency management systems.
