Just to be clear, it wasn't my decision; this feature was added before I was a core developer. In any case, this is the opposite case: the system Python is not affected by this feature. It affects user-installed framework-build Pythons, such as those provided by python.org installers, allowing them to share distributions explicitly installed by the user with the system Pythons. It also does not share 3rd-party distributions included by Apple with the system Pythons. I'm +0 on it myself. -- Ned Deily, nad at acm.org
