  You know the Jehovah's Witnesses came to my door the other day and told us that we shouldn't read anything about them online except their official web site. I am still using Python for my personal projects, something I wouldn't do if I didn't think Python was worthwhile. I've seen a lot of people who've been burned and won't come back. If we're not going to be honest about problems people are going to keep getting burned and keep leaving.

    No need to be sarcastic-by-allegory. Are you using `pip freeze` / `pip list --format=freeze` to capture the state of a working environment? What size system are you working on that you get into difficulties in upgrading a subset of project dependencies? It's often easier to upgrade by re-capturing the currently-contemporaneous set of dependencies, (and then diffing the new output of `pip freeze` with the previous one to see what's changed), than it is to manually follow the dependency graph when updating a single component. As always, YMMV.
