The subtlety here is in which binary wheel is selected: a particular (host, arch, libc) tuple may cause `pip` to select a more specific wheel for the same version of the package, or even an entirely different wheel. This makes wheels themselves reproducible between systems, but it also means that which wheel isn't guaranteed.
