With PEP 810 and lazy imports along with the fact you can no longer rely on an OS having Python installed, I **really** want an easy way to make a CLI tool for multiple OSs from my pure Python code and dependencies (i.e. simpler than what Briefcase is aimed at). If it was easy enough to do I think it could help bring about a bit of a renaissance of Python CLI tools to compete with Go and Rust.
