I never got why.

I use Python since version 1.6, mainly for OS scripting, because I rather use something with JIT/AOT in the box for application software.

Still, having a little setup script to change environment variables for PYTHONPATH, PATH and a few other things, always did the trick.

Never got to spend hours tracking down problems caused by the multiple solutions that are supposed to solve Python's problems.
