Note that coveragepy ain't the sole usecase for this.

https://pypi.org/project/manhole/ - a debugging tool
https://pypi.org/project/hunter/ - a tracer

In addition to those there's https://pypi.org/project/pytest-cov/ which 
packages the pth trick so coverage works consistently in all scenarios without 
putting users through the trouble of messing their python installation.

Also, the amount of activity and enthusiasm on changing something that already 
works while other inconsistencies in python's core like issue23990 are ignored 
is disheartening.
