You'll only really get 2 when 1 is fulfilled.

From my experience, with repos that have Poetry set up, I do get a "it just works" experience that I've previously been lacking when working with python. AFAIK there is no "scripts" section (for e.g. "poetry start" like "npm start") in the config file, or at least no one is using them. You'll have to take a quick peek into the README, but the same is true for npm projects, as the script verbs aren't really standardized.

You can use a "scripts" section in pyproject.toml (it's what poetry reads, and increasingly more Python tools are leveraging it, which is good), but in general each repository/project offers what it wants to offer as commands, nothing in comparison with the "standards in use" for npm and similar. Personally I have used it to give easy access to the "main thing I want to execute" for my own weird projects.

I'm pretty happy using Poetry, and agree with your initial point, partially with the second. There can be some edges with packages involving "anything" binary (to be fair, that is to be expected), and a big issue (for me) is locking the resolution of some libraries, like boto (since botocloud has hundreds of patch releases and the resolver can get pretty crazy unless you play a bit of manual bisection). But this only hits you on poetry lock or poetry add when developing, and only in some cases, I think it's a fair price to pay for a reproducible build.

There is a scripts section in pyproject.toml, which is leveraged by “poetry run”. This is different than for npm, though, since these aren’t dev-environment scripts but the executable scripts that are installed with the project

I usually put https://pypi.org/project/taskipy/ in my poetry dev dependencies to achieve this - then I can just run `poetry run task start`
