Simplified Python installation and distribution process
On Windows, installing Python requires downloading an installer manager app from the Windows Store, which then installs Python itself. This creates an unnecessarily indirect installation flow. Users want a simpler, more direct way to get Python installed without needing to navigate through platform app stores.
SOURCE TRANSMISSION
“Love that the Windows Store version of the Python Install Manager has a PEGI-3 age rating. You can get in on Python development pretty early in life, it seems! (but seriously why do I have to go to the Windows store to download an installer for a Manager app that then installs Python..? 😭)”
CLASSIFIER RATIONALE
Post opens with humor about a PEGI rating, but the serious concern (signaled by 'but seriously') expresses genuine frustration about the convoluted installation flow: needing to go through the Windows Store to download an installer app that then installs Python. This is a complaint about unnecessary complexity in the distribution/installation process for a development tool. The author is expressing that there should be a simpler, more direct way to install Python without this indirect dependency chain.
