No, it implies that the pip package was installed for just the current
user via, for example, `py -m ensurepip --user`. Per-user package
installs in 3.8 go in "%APPDATA%\Python\Python38\site-packages"
(roaming appdata). For a per-user installation of Python 3.8, pip
would be installed in
"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Python\Python38\site-packages" (local appdata
programs).
