Thanks. That makes sense (even if it tweaks my sense of consistency) but it might more sense as MPI is built in via Python as well... but we do have conda on the cluster and it puts them in control more or less of their process.

While I used to build it from source, I use conda/mamba to install Sage: https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/conda.html and strongly recommend this approach today. As for a local or shared install, Sage opens a staggeringly large number of files on startup. On a shared file system, this can result in very slow startup times (30 seconds or even more) even though starting Sage takes just a few seconds on one's laptop.
