They look similar, but they have very different scopes.  Pip is for the python 
environment only.  Conda acts more like a python focused, system-isolated APT.  
  Unifying packaging for the general python ecosystem (wheels hosted on pypi 
installed with pip) with conda (full stack dependency management, including 
large quantities of foreign code) is likely to be impossible, and even if 
possible, impractical.
