I'm glad you asked. :)
If we were to do as you suggest, and essentially expand lang/pythonXY to
install the bundled pip and setuptools during the stage phase, then we would
lock the pip and setuptools upgrade cycle to the corresponding lang/pythonXY
upgrades. All current python versions bundle pip 9.0.1 (latest) and setuptools
28.8.0 (from 2016-11-04, 27 releases earlier than latest). Furthermore, since
pip and setuptools are bundled as wheels, they could presumably be overwritten
with updated wheels during the lang/pythonXY patch phase. I can think of a few
drawbacks to that, but no deal breakers.
That seems like a fine alternative, and I would be glad to work on developing a
patch to implement it if the list prefers.
