I would suggest there may be three use cases for Python installation tools. Bonus -- I'm not a web developer! :)

Case One: Developer wishing to install additional functionality into the system Python interpreter forever Case Two: Developer wishing to install additional functionality into the system Python interpreter for a specific task Case Three: Person wanting to install an application which happens to be written in Python


a maybe more exotic Case Four: the enlightened open-source user, who wants to install an application, but might like to look under the hood, either to tweek it to his needs, or to investigate a bug.

In that case, each application comming with a private version of various system libraries is unwelcomed complication, so that using the platform's package manager is a much better solution.

Cheers,
B.
