> Poetry is mainly used for managing an _application_ and its dependencies

I'm surprised to hear that view, since when I looked into poetry it seemed more designed for libraries than for (web) applications. I'm thinking specifically about this thread about whether it would be desirable to have a config file option for the --no-root command line flag: https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/2458

Poetry does several things by default that are bad for libraries - see https://iscinumpy.dev/post/poetry-versions/ for some details.

Oh yeah, that takes me back, that’s my issue right there. I can’t believe how I had to get so heavy handed in the comments to get people to stop debating the validity of the idea. Hadn’t worked on the project that needed it in a while so I forgot it wasn’t fixed yet, which is a bit disappointing considering.
