This question is not technical.
I know that there is no 'uninstall' Option in a setup.py.
I know this discussions and workarounds for that problem, too.

I want to understand the design concept behind it.
I haven't the faintest idea, sorry :(
Why isn't there no uninstall routine implemented?
For me as a user and admin it feels quite dirty when installing
something with the setup.py but then not being able to remove it clean
like I would do it with packages of my system-package-manager (e.g. with
apt-get on a debianized system).
pip (un)install xyz suits me fine on Windows, but then I'm a one stop shop.
