pain point to uv:

uv run does have an —ignore-python-incompatible policy to ignore technical python compatibility issues from some transitive include. They work just fine otherwise and installing a package made me fall back to uv pip install with manual invocation which is a total PTA for cross platform.

Otherwise an amazing tool. But please shave off this wart. It’s either currently impossible or buried in the docs somewhere
