It's a dig - you completely ignore the valid complaints about Python to instead focus on what you think will provoke me.
The problem (for you) was, from the very start, I bought up the pain points with Go.

I'll grant I lost track of the context that you were trying to raise the possibility of some grand encompassing solution to all programming language package management. All I wanted was to reinforce the idea that virtualenv is Often Just Fine in practice, at least if used in sensible ways.
