Poetry is indeed very nice for that. Bit of a learning curve but then very easy to push packages to PyPI or internal things like Artifactory.
The most similar language to Python is Ruby, not Rust or Go, and Ruby is better at the things you've listed. Which would bring us back to the previous point that it's not actually about ease of use.
Someone else identified Ruby's fatal flaw as not having good C tooling, and I think that's probably accurate.

Ruby has odd, once unique syntax that looks strange to anyone raised on C-like syntax, including js and java. Python is similar, simply removing redundant braces. So no ruby was not better at things most folks care about.
You seem to have confused personal familiarity with ease of learning.

Things that are familiar are easier to learn, it’s a fact. As someone raised on math notation, then industry exposure. Ruby being a odd one out did it no favors.
Some languages have a good integrated tool chain (Rust, Go) but are not as approachable and forgiving.
Some are approachable but lack the friction-free story for locating and installing 3rd party dependencies.
