I somehow misinterpreted pipenv being an official python project. My usecase was pretty simple, I wanted a requirements.txt that only included the things I explicitly installed with perhaps a requirements-lock.txt with the actual list of things installed. :/
I didn’t even realize poetry existed until I talked to people who do python full time.

I feel the exact opposite: things like Rome (and Deno) are exactly the kind of projects that are needed in order to sort out a horribly fractured eco-system. I don't care who built them as long as they work well to solve the problems that so clearly exist.
