Your analogy has some holes. Go doesn't direct end users to pull from github and `git pull` is not expected to manage dependencies.
The root of this problem is whether pip is an end user's package manager, where a meta package makes sense, or is it a developer's tool, where you want to manage finer grained dependencies?

I do see your point though, at the least it's confusing to unpack. 1: https://go.dev/doc/manage-install https://go.dev/doc/manage-install
