I'm totally with you at this point.

It is clear for me that distro maintainers sometimes using different 
mechanics.
But I'm the upstream maintainer and before handing offer a release to 
the distro that thing need to run without a distro. And that is pip. I 
also know a quit old project using "make" for that.

This question is independent from distros.

They are two very different things. There is a strict reason why I need 
to use pkexec here.
