I took it a fair bit further than musings:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0432/#a-system-python-executable

Unfortunately PEP 432's a big project with very high barriers to entry
(you need to come to grips with the current arcane startup sequence
first), so I've never managed to hand it over after running out of
time to pursue it myself.

Cheers,
Nick.
