I literally wouldn’t use uv if it weren’t available via pip.

Reasoning: it’s a Python tool, therefore it shouldn’t require anything (any 3rd party package manager) beyond Python.

It’s a standalone binary. It doesn’t require anything at all. It’s literally just one file you can put anywhere you like. It doesn’t need a third-party package manager.

Sure it does. When you download it manually you become that package manager.
