Just a note; these scrips are not comparable in monstrosity as the first is about to initiate the project when as the second one is to initiate whole PyPy installation.

So if you have PyPy already on your machines;

  pypy -m venv venv && \
    source venv/bin/activate && \
    pip install --upgrade pip && \
    pip install wheel && \
    pip install -r requirements.txt

Was not that bad after all, when my initial thought was that do I need all the above to just initiate the project :D

That's true, but you can run the first block of commands on a brand new Ubuntu installation because regular CPython is installed by default. Whereas you would need to do the whole second block when starting on a fresh machine.
