I use poetry every day and so far it's been pretty great. The main complications I have had are with accessing private pypi repos in Azure DevOps pipelines which use short lived tokens but it just looks a little clunky, still works.

> Also its odd that pyproject.toml (not poetry.toml which is the poetry settings for repo) is the dependency definition file and poetry.lock is the lock file

This is because poetry is using Python's PEP 518[1] specification rather than define their own build requirements format. It also isn't limited to just building, you can also include the configuration for other python tools like `pytest`[2].
