i wonder why nobody thought to do the things that uv does before... (obviously i'm talking about its features here, not rust. it's crazy good)

They certainly tried (see Poetry, Pyenv, Conda, etc.). But that was mostly done by Python developers in Python, which is frankly the entire problem.

Yeah I know Poetry. The problem is Poetry sucked. I don't remember exactly how but it left a realllly bad taste in my mouth, and not because of speed. And I don't recall other solutions thinking to provide aliases for python and pip commands either.
