Because pip comes with python.

@majkinetor do you know if this is true of all versions of Python, or only the latest version?

https://chocolatey.org/packages/pip is last time updated more then 4 years ago. It should be deprecated IMO as it is confusing.

Furthermore it is dangerous to install it, check out comments and those align with my experience. Python3 comes with pip, not sure about Python2 tho at this moment without a test but it is probably the case.

@majkinetor I have just done a quick test, and it looks like when doing choco install python2 the pip.exe is available in the scripts folder. It isn't directly accessible from the command line. I am not a Python developer, so I don't know if this is expected or not. Should the python package create a shim for the pip.exe?

I can take an action to speak with @ferventcoder about deprecating the pip package.

Give us a ticket at coreteam-repo for this as everybody expectes pip to just work.
