Ultimately it needs to be "Python.org" that endorses the tool, not PyPA, no one in the scheme of things know who PyPA are and if it's the "one true way".

If you go to Python.org and follow through to the beginners guide [0] this is what's suggested:

> There are several methods to install additional Python packages:

> Packages can be installed via the standard Python distutils mode (python setup.py install).

> Many packages can also be installed via the setuptools extension or pip wrapper, see https://pip.pypa.io/.

That is so out of date and fundamentally confuses people coming to Python for the first time. How is pip secondary, and no mention of venv?

The PyPA need to get buy in from Python Core to put one tool front and centre first. It needs to be like Rust with Cargo, literally the first thing you learn to use and core to all beginners guides.

That's not to diminish the work of PyPA, you are all amazing I just want your work to be more obvious!
