rip to the .exe installer - honestly overdue, since python on windows has been a rite of passage in suffering for too long, and leaning into winget/store is the right call

I genuinely don't understand what people think was wrong with the installer. I never had any problems with it.

Of course, it helps that I actually read labels next to checkboxes, and understand the "for this user"/"for all users" paradigm on Windows, and recognize that the way that Windows expects programs to be organized in Program Files is bad for %PATH% length....
