Yes, as already said - the sample project is limited in scope to packaging. But in the larger context of 'setting up a Python project from scratch - many folk have written opinionated guides - and if you were writing one of those, even if tox isn't consensus opinion, I'd say use it, so that new folk don't need to read a chunk of prose about choosing the right-thing-for-them.
