Does anything speak against flipping the relationship? i.e. using pip (or something else) as the standard way to install Python.

You might want to look at micromamba as a separate tool that can install python itself, libraries, etc. with zero dependency on a python being installed. It's a very fast tool written in C++ so it's easy to install and use almost anywhere. It uses the conda ecosystem of packages.
