The Python community also has an issue of complexity around the current
bootstrap procedure for pip, setuptools and virtualenv. They all have

their own bootstrap download file with slightly different usages and
even refer to each other in some cases. Having a single bootstrap which
is common amongst them all, with a simple usage, would be far preferable.

The Python installation includes an executable called "pip3" (see PEP 394 for
naming rationale etc.) that attempts to import pip machinery. If it can then
