I have never used tox up to now. But reading the mails of the thread, it seems
that tox is the current state of the art.

I don't see why that would be the case.  tox is certainly "the state of
the art" in certain circles, but many projects don't mandate it at all
or even don't use it at all and rely on other mechanisms (e.g. CI with
a rich configuration matrix).

My question was: Any reasons not to use tox in the sample project?

I read your answer like this:

 Many projects don't mandate it at all
 or even don't use it at all and rely on other mechanisms

Yes, it is correct that many projects is a different way.

I search a simple guideline for new comers to set up
a python project including testing.

 "Since many projects don't mandate it at all ..."

I don't know if this a good argument against it.
