I think I've heard that theory whispered occasionally too... :-)

That's actually what my post was meant to reference - finishing off
your functional-with-questions python.iss using ISX.  But as time is
finite (at least down to some level of precision or exactness and if
I'm not using / rather than // ... or something like that), it's not
clear there's much benefit to having a working Inno solution given the
new Wise lease on life.  At least barring some completely free
experimental time.
