Unfortunately the Python package ecosystem is enough of a headache.

Now we add additional complication "OK, these pip package authors have upstreamed Alpine packages, and these other ones are only on PyPi".

Maybe this approach would work if you can keep your Python dependencies to a small list of well-maintained packages

The good news is that there is work in progress to untangle the mess with PyPI wheels and musl. But it is easy enough to just not use wheels.
