Distributing Go binaries like SQLite-scanner through PyPI using go-to-wheel

This is a really interesting way of distributing binary executables. I don't think I'd quite put all the pieces together that it could be done this way, with python just acting as a thing layer over the executable itself.

I feel like this pattern opens up more possibilities but I can't quite work out what they would be.

Edit: Simon links to a page talking about using python/pip to install a C compiler for any platform [0]
