Python was also a shitshow and UV became the new standard in literally less than a year.

That’s an existence proof that a new tool that doesn’t suck can take over an ecosystem.

Completely agreed. However, typically a new tool needs to be significantly better for that to happen. In many ways, I see Meson already being that but it hasn't really gained traction at scale.
also agreed.

UV was so good it was just obviously significantly better.

All I really want is Bazel/Buck but in a simple and easy to use way. I feel like this can be done.
