> Anyway you can package a C application, you can package a Python application

While true, this means that packaging Python is harder than a typical C application, and requires knowledge of the C building process. That's not what people have in mind when installing Python software.

The methods you mention are exactly the reason why it is so complicated. Everyone wants to use their own method to install Python software.
