I seem to be missing something critical to this entire discussion.

As I understand it, ensurepip is *only* intended to bootstrap pip 
itself. So the idea is, you install Python, including ensurepip, use 
that to install the latest pip *including wheel*, and Bob's your uncle.

At worst, you install pip, then install wheel.

So what is the benefit of including wheel with ensurepip?
