For companies. Which is why when random people start acting like it’s important, you have to wonder why it’s important to them.
For example, being a corporate shill. Or so deep in coolaid you can’t allow alternative opinions? Hm?
It’s called an echo chamber.

I don't use uv because I don't currently trust that it will be maintained on the timescales I care about. I stick with pip and venv, because I expect they will still be around 10 years from now, because they have much deeper pools of interested people to draw contributors and maintainers from, because - wait for it - they are really popular. Your theory about random people being corporate shills for anything they keep an eye on the popularity of can be explained much more parsimoniously like that.
