Counterpoints: Start with pip, the official package manager. You don't have to start with virtual envs: I didn't. I haven't ran into any function which I "should not use". You don't need an entry point, you can just write code in a file. Besides that, I don't see how much it differs from other languages with implicit entry points, where you need to match a certain name in your function. Imports: yes, those are annoying and confusing. I still struggle with those. Aditionally: package managers and virtual envs are a pain in the ass. Every year we're getting a new one which is supposed to solve the problems from the previous one, but doesn't, and the cycle goes on. The language should really solve this at the core instead of requiring community fixing, as it is a core part of any serious development.
