The biggest advantage of Setuptools is its enhanced package management capabilities. It can use a more transparent method to find, download and install the dependency pack, and you can switch freely in multiple versions of a package, all installed on the same system, or you can declare a specific version of a package, and you can update to the latest version of a package with just one simple command. Most impressive of all, even though some of the package developers may have never considered any setuptools compatibility issues, we can still use these packages.
