Oh I see. I installed awscliv2 after discovering that awscli did not have the ec2-instance-connect command, so I could not follow the documentation and went searching to see if there was an updated package and discovered that one. So I guess you are not supposed to install it using pip anymore. Good to know.

Update: and now I've read through the github issue, oh my I've missed quite some drama.

I agree it's confusing and I think Amazon's reasons for dropping PyPI support are pretty lame:

They also have't provided a reason for why they don't distribute via Homebrew:
