I much prefer the Debian way, i.e. having stable, known-good versions
of all those Python modules rather than manually following upstream.
As an admin I find it rather tiresome to keep track of dozens of
installed third-party packages and their vulnerabilities and
compatibility.

That said, as long as you don't actively try to get rid of these
packages I don't see an issue with better integration of pip & friends.
