I agree that compiling Python from source is surprisingly straight forward, but is that a serious question?
Have you ever worked in a place that uses Python? When someone says to you "hey it's not working" are you really going to say with a straight face "oh yes, you just need to compile Python from source". Come on, this is one of those obviously stupid situations that for some reason people feel the need to defend. It's not defensible.
You don't need to compile Node or Rust or Go or Deno from source to install the latest version.
