Linux has often had the same issue. The problem is the OS relies on system installed Python and package versions. If you, as a user, upgrade Python or those packages the OS may not gracefully handle them. In Linux you can end up with an unbootable OS. I'm not sure if you could blame Python devs or the OS devs (or the user). Homebrew can help with distinction, letting the user install to `/usr/local/bin/python` while the OS continues to use `/usr/bin/python`. My personal solution is to install Python packages into my homedir (--user) or use virtualenvs. This also helps when six months from now you want a "clean" setup. I've pushed any organization I've worked at who heavily relies on Python to decouple Python from the OS because of this and so OS updates can be independent of Python updates.
