It's not clear to me which side you're arguing for.  can you clarify
which action is going to break things for people and cause a bunch of
confusion?

If pip silently removes/updates system-provided python packages, that is
likely to break things and cause a bunch of confusion, no?

alternately, if pip verbosely refuses to run as uid 0, that's at least a
non-silent failure. (though it certainly will break things and frustrate
some people)

        --dkg
