> Yes, Poetry should be the blessed package manager.

Last time I tried to use poetry (and this is why it was the last time I tried to use poetry), it ignored global pip settings and had no documented mechanism for its own settings (I believe poetry uses its own implementation of or captive install of pip) which made it completely unusable in a corporate environment with annoying SSL interception issues to work around where pip + venv worked.

Poetry is a much smoother experience when it works, though.

It will install a virtual env if you don't have one active and it will use the active one if you do. What global pip settings, for example?
