So the answer is, switch to Linux. In other words, a cop-out.

Poor old Chris seems to be getting a little frustrated so I'll just repeat what
I said previously.

What is the problem with the documentation given here
https://docs.python.org/devguide ?
Specifically:-
"and on Windows use:
PCbuild\build.bat -e -d"
</quote>
That is 24 key strokes, including ENTER, to do the build on Windows. What is
so difficult about this?
I'll repeat what I said before: I don't want to build CPython with
VS2015. I wanted to build it with Tiny C.
The purpose of doing the latter was to evaluate what the performance
might be, if for example Tiny C became the bundled C compiler so as to
quickly get a source distribution going. Bundling VS2015 with CPython
sources is not going to happen.
(Although I wouldn't really be surprised if someone tried it. People
here don't seem to see anything wrong with cracking a small nut with a
particularly massive sledgehammer.)
