Well... Then they care. But I don't think the majority of Python code out there falls in these categories.

python is widely used as a scripting language. If you are on windows they will probably ship with their own python. Even if not they will probably have to use something to glue the main program to the interpreter which will probably not be compatible with any python implementation.
