There is already a getpip.py that's just not distributed with Python. So if  
"There 
is only one additional command to type" was the excuse than we already have 
that:

    curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | python

But for various reasons many projects have decided that expecting people to
install the tools is difficult, especially for beginners and that simply 
documenting
the command to install it was not enough.
