Question: Why do we keep setuptools? According to PEP453: > Once pip is able to run pip install --upgrade pip without needing setuptools installed first, then the private copy of setuptools will be removed from ensurepip in subsequent CPython releases. Which looks like to be the fact now: $ python3.9 -m venv .venv $ source .venv/bin/activate $ pip uninstall setuptools [...] Successfully uninstalled setuptools-49.2.1 $ pip install --upgrade pip [...] Successfully installed pip-20.3.3
