It's not just a matter of how they're written. For Python specifically, build orchestration is a big deal. But also, you know, there are all the architecture ideas that make uv faster than pip. Smarter (and more generous) caching; hard-linking files where possible rather than copying them; parallel downloads (I tend to write this off but it probably does help a bit, even though the downloading process is intermingled with resolution); using multiple cores for precompiling bytecode (the one real CPU-intensive task for a large pure-Python installation).
