The issue is that import setuptools give distribute, even though I do want setuptools, and that distribute does that against both upstream will and my will. The issue is that I have wasted days of free work on numpy/scipy because of all this softwares that had causes issues *even though my project don't use setuptools/distribute*. I am sure you would be pissed too if people were installing numpy, would change behavior of say zope behind your back, and you would get all the bug reports from your users.
