    We also no longer upgrade pip and setuptools. This used to be needed
    back when these were heavily transitioning to modern packaging
    capabilities in the Python 2 era. Nowadays they do more harm than good,
    particularly with some pip bugs that can remove incorrect versions of
    the pipX.Y scripts.

    Successfully installed packages in a brand-new development environment.

    We also no longer upgrade `pip` and `setuptools`. This used to be needed back when these were heavily transitioning to modern packaging capabilities in the Python 2 era. Nowadays they do more harm than good, particularly with some `pip` bugs that can remove incorrect versions of the `pipX.Y` scripts.
