For me the most convincing argument was that it took ~3 minutes to go from 'I wonder if I should give this thing a try' to 'oh it .... it worked!?'

As someone who also hasn't really used any of the past 8 years or so of Python dependency management, it's nice that it seems to support using arbitrary other tooling as well. At some point recently I wanted to run something that happened to use pdm, which I hadn't even heard of, but I was able to invoke it with `uv tool run pdm` and not have to learn anything about how to set it up manually.

FYI you can run just `uvx pdm`

Interesting! I honestly didn't even know that this shorthand existed

Yeah, been doing this for over twenty years and finally got a chance to start playing with it a few months back and was confused at how I got that far that fast.

This is how I explain it to the stragglers. Just try it because you will suddenly in about 1 to 3 minutes not know how to go back. Haha.
