uv assuming your local Python is busted to hell and back helps a lot with isolation.

Poetry's CLI would often, for me, just fall over and crash. Crashing a lot is not a fundamental problem in the sense you can fix the bugs, but hey I'm not hitting uv crashes.

pipenv was even worse in terms of just hanging during package resolution. Tools that hang are not tools you want in a CI pipeline!

The end result: `uv run` I expect to work. `pipenv` or `poetry` calls I have to assume don't work, have to put retries into CI pipelines and things like that.
