> Pip doesn't detect any ambiguities. In fact Pip's behaviour is a gaping security hole that they've refused to fix, and as far as I know the only way to avoid it is to use `uv`

Agreed the current behavior is stupid, FWIW. I hope PEPs 708 and 752 get implemented soon. I'm just pointing out that there's an important qualitative difference between

1. we do the same job, but much faster; and

2. we decided your job is stupid and so don't do it, realizing speedups.

uv presents itself as #1 but is actually #2, and that's a shame.
