I'm not sure if I get the point of this article. So basically the author has learnt that there are a different ways of managing packages in Python? I'm aware that this might be a problem in Python, but let's be serious guys, you only need to spend 5 mins to learn about venv/conda and you will never face any problem in a basic Python project. You don't have to write an article about that.

As an outsider, the ecosystem looks like a mess. The point of the article is to illustrate some of those issues.

As an insider (to some degree), the ecosystem looks like a mess because it is a mess.

It's entirely reasonable for people to have problems when using it.
