Runtime environments can change often, if you need to install your application on a ton of PC's you don't want to install python version 3.X on all of those instead you could just compile it into a native binary, pip is the most unsafe hell

If you're compiling a native binary you DEFINITELY aren't in scripting territory anymore.
