Curious what you found too opinionated about Poetry (not saying it doesn't happen)

The way it assumes one and exactly one venv per project was a big one. The one that broke me however was trying to get it work with external build systems, specifically trying to compile C++ code as part of the build process. Another important one was that it doesn't play nicely with older code built on pip and pip based workflows. You basically have to start from scratch, while uv makes it much easier to slowly transition.
